The Approval app in Microsoft Teams provides a simple way to create and document a request and its outcome.  The app has two very basic functions – send requests for an approval and approve (or deny) a request.

To open the Approvals app, from the left Nav bar in Teams, (1) select the ellipse, (2) select the approvals app.  If you do not see the Approvals app icon, (3) search for it in the “Find an app” field.  You can start an approval process directly from the approvals app, or from a (4) Chat conversation.

Review the links provided below for examples and instructions on use of the Approval app.
