Hi,
It will help us provide you with the accurate response and suggestions if you provide more information on what you need.
For now, I can only assume that you were probably looking for the feature on how to attach the form submission data as PDF attachment.
There is option to include the form submission data as PDF Attachment in the form Email.
User guide : How to Include Submissions as PDF Attachment in the Email
Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thank you for the clarification about the feature you were looking for. As of now, the option to attach submission PDF in the Approval Flows Email is not available.
What is available instead is to include file attachment. You can customize the Email template of the Approval Flow and attach an external file to the email message.
Example:
I think this is by designed, because you can actually do it already in the regular Emails of the form.
Ex:
I will use this ticket to submit a feature request to our development team if its possible to have option to attach the submission PDF document in the Approval Flows also.
We will announce and notify you here and in your email for any news/updates on the status of this.

I would like to add this as a request.
In fact, I would go so far as to say the current set-up is exactly backwards to how it should be.
What's the point of the approval form if they receive their document before it's been approved? We need to withhold the document until we approve it. Disappointing set-up.

An option to add pdf after approving would be great.

Thank you. This is a great product/service.
BTW, I was able to achieve what I wanted using this workflow:

It's just a bit involved.

@Kennebec
Thank you for sharing this information. Indeed using that long method should work as well.
You just need to put more time to it.
We have a feature request attached to this ticket already. We cannot provide any time frame as to when it will be available, but we will announce and notify via Email for any news/updates on the status.
