Hi, our team is currently working on building DMS system in sharepoint, using document library with approval process built in MS Flow. We are trying to solve one issue, if it's possible to automatically Check OUT document after successful approval process.

Currently we have 2step approval process and we'd like to check out doc after 2nd approval.

Thanks for help.
