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

Would it be possible to automatically reset approvals after a page edit in order to ensure that all changes are approved?

Solution

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

For the Page Update Reset Approval option

• choose Reset from the dropdown menu option

Open

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

• any existing Approve/Reject decisions will be reset but the content state will not change

See Configuration - Space Tools for more details.
