In Module: Use the Teams connector in Power Automate, it has shown how to build connector with Teams. It simulated the approval solution to and from the Flow and Teams.

My question is, how long does the Flow can wait for the response of the user in Teams?
Is the Flow synchronous or asynchronous?

Hoping for enlightenment on this. Thank you very much!

    Hello Mary Henrielle Babar (PH),

    Thank you for reaching out on the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    The flow can wait up to 30 days by default for a response. This timeout can be customized to a shorter or longer duration. The flow is synchronous during the approval step. It pauses until the user responds (approved/rejected) or the timeout period expires.

    If you are still facing any issue, please let us know in the comments and where you are encountering this error along with the screenshot for reference. We are glad to help you.
