How to redirect a request to requestee

[Abhishek]

Hi,

Is it possible to redirect a endpoint request to requestee for 1st level approval.

for ex: Some one is raising a request on my behalf then it should come to me for approval.

Do you know if this is possible to achieve in saviynt tool?

I tried multiple ways but the request gets redirected to admin.

ex: I choose Custom Assignment -> selected user field as "USERNAME" and the added object as below

${user}

${RequestedFor.username}

${user.username}

and, Under Custom assignment, I choose user field as "Custom Query" and tried below query but no luck, request goes to Admin:

select userkey from users where username = '${RequestedFor.username}'

select userkey from users where username = '${user}'

Kindly help.

Thanks

Hello,

Self Approval is not possible in the workflow.

@sahajranajee Hi Sahaj,
Is there any other way to achieve this? Our use case is like this:

For Account Removal scenario, is user (account owner) requesting themselves? if yes then request requires no approval and account gets removed straight away.
If someone else is requesting the removal, then account should only be removed after approval from the owner of the application account.

Account Owner - Are you referring to Service Account? then use Custom assignment block with custom query

if not service account then requestedFor eq requestedBy

whenever requestedby & requested for is same it will go for admin approval as per audit its should not be allowed
