Setting up an approval quorum

Approval summary

The approval quorum request requires a minimum number of approvers in the list to approve the request. This means even if some approvers reject the request, as long as the minimum number of approval is still met, the page approval status will change to Approved.

If most approvers reject the approval request and the minimum number of approvers cannot be met, the approval status will change to Rejected.
