I need to configure the default Approval Flow in SharePoint online, so that it triggers on News Posts but not normal Site Pages.

I can differentiate between the two by checking the item properties for the PromotedState, where 1/2 is News and anything else is a Site Page.

If the PromotedState is 1/2, I proceed with approval as normal. If not, I want to automatically set the approval status as 'approved'.

Screenshot of the flow

The problem: When run, the "Approve" Action returns a 502 BadGateway error. The created Site Page is set as 'Pending', but not approved.

{
  "error": {
    "code": 502,
    "source": "flow-apim-europe-002-westeurope-01.azure-apim.net",
    "clientRequestId": "0631ab61-71c5-43d1-b314-5e9f4cf3880d",
    "message": "BadGateway",
    "innerError": {
      "status": 500,
      "message": "Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))\r\nclientRequestId: 0631ab61-71c5-43d1-b314-5e9f4cf3880d\r\nserviceRequestId: 0631ab61-71c5-43d1-b314-5e9f4cf3880d"
    }
  }
}

Expected result: A newly created Site Page will be flagged as Approved.

Actual result: A newly created Site Page is flagged as Pending, the Flow fails with a 502 BadGateway error on the Approve action.
