Find Operator that completed last assignement
Hello,
Using the approval shape, is there a property or a way to find the Operator that completed the last assignement?
I need to find who completed an assignement even if it was completed by email.
Thank you

Hello,
None of them had the good value.In fact, after doing multiple tests, I found out that pxRequestor.pxUserIdentifier contain the good value even in case of email approval.
Thank you for your help.

The goal is to use it in a when rule on a later stage to bypass the stage if the operator alreay approved the previous stage.
Regarding :
"If you want to show on some reports then you can have a DT which can be configured in the flow action post processing to store the operator id in some property."
It's exactly what I want to do but which field can be used ? .pyOperatorID ? I need to find a field or a way to get the approver and store it in a property when approved by email too.

I think you can use pyCurrentApprover and pyPreviousApprover properties

Look like pyCurrentApprover and pyPreviousApprover are used and set only in Cascading approval not when using simple Approval.
Any other idea?

Can you check whether pxUpdateOperator or pxUpdateOpName or pxflow().pxLastUpdateBy work ??

pxRequestor Page contains Current Requestor information who is currently using the workitem .
It will not hold Previous Assignment approver

You are right but if you use it on the connector just after the approval shape, no matter what it will contains the operator that just approved the request.
Using that knowledge, you can set another property to store the value and use it at a later stage.
It's the only option that work 100% of the time for me based on our testing.
