Where Do Approval Request Posts for Classic Approval Processes Appear?

When your org has Approvals in Chatter enabled, approval request posts appear in various Chatter feeds. To see the approval request post, you must have access to the approval record.

Important
Important Try Flow Approval Processes, a modern alternative to Classic Approval Processes. This new feature provides a more flexible, user-friendly flow-based interface, and it can trigger on record changes, supporting Apex extensibility and detailed logging for compliance and audit trails. It supports dynamic routing based on data and business rules, unlike Classic Approval Processes, which are tied to specific objects and offer limited support for processes by using conditions. With Flow Approval Processes, you can monitor submitted records and quickly identify bottlenecks, giving you unprecedented visibility into approval workflows. And, like Classic Approval Processes, Flow Approval Processes don’t consume automation credits or orchestration runs.

Approval request posts show up in these feeds.

  • Chatter feed of the assigned approver
  • Submitter’s profile
  • Chatter feed of the submitter if the submitter is following the approval request record
  • Chatter feed of the approval request record
  • Chatter feed of anyone following the approval request record
  • Object-specific filter on the Chatter feed of anyone following the approval record
  • Company filter of every user with access to the approval record
