Cause If the user does not type the word "approve" in the subject line of the reply email, or does not click the Approve button in the email body, which adds "approve" to the subject line, the approval reply will fail. Other replies such as stating "I approve this" in the email body are not sufficient to approve a requested item. Resolution By design, the reply email must contain the word "approve" in the subject line. Additional Information The out-of-box inbound email action that controls this behaviour is named 'Update Approval Request'.Approvals release notesNotification example: approval request
