Can you automatically reset approvals after a page edit in order to ensure that all changes are approved?

Scenario

You have assigned some people to review a page, and someone has approved the page, but the page is updated according to others' opinions.

Now, you want these people who have made the approval decision to review the page again without changing the page status.

Question

Could approvals be automatically reset after a page edit to ensure that all changes are approved?

Solution

This behavior for approvals in each space can be set  in Space tools > Document Management > Configuration

For the Page Update Reset Approval option:

  • Choose Reset from the dropdown menu option

When this option is set to Reset, if an approval (content review) is in progress and the content is edited

  • Any existing Approve or Reject decisions are reset, but the workflow state does not change

The default setting for the space is based on the global configuration for the Page Update Reset Approval, and by default, is Ignore.

See Configuration - space tools for more details.
