Show approver name in column

Stacy Weber

I have an approval workflow and when the request is approved/declined, I want the name of the approver to show up in the "Approved By" column on my spreadsheet. How do I do this?

Hi @Stacy Weber

I hope you're well and safe!

You'd either need to set up the workflow with all the different approvers as unique options in one Approval column or multiple columns.

You could also use the method above and then collect the information in the Approved By column, or combine it with who modified the sheet using my method described below.

Please have a look at my post below with a method I developed.

Would any of those options work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
