I am testing WFA 3.0 for approval point ,

Can send test email from WFA config but not getting email from running workflow

for WFA approval point email notification

is it possible to add custom message about workflow pending approval in email

How to add current workflow info in Approval Point (current variables/user input of work flow )

or how to include current workflow user input in approval email ?

we have WFA 2.2 upgraded to 3.0 build 2729076

Refer to the workflow Developers guide of WFA 3.0, Refer page 37 and 38.

Approval point examples are in predefined workflows You can open the following predefined workflows in the Designer to understand how approval points are used:

• Remove a Clustered Data ONTAP Volume

• Controller and shelf upgrade of a HA pair

• Migrate Volumes

Thanks for your mail.

The content is not sent via email.

It appears only in the Execution Status. ( Execution->Execution Status-> (See last column) Approval Point Comments.

but workflow approval point without any comment doesnt send email -->This should not be the case. Make sure

that you have clicked on "Workflow Execution waiting for approval" in "Administration->Account Settings" screen.

I tried with a non-ldap account and it worked fine with me.
