I don't have a request in this conversation to attach an approver to — could you point me to the specific request (ticket, form, doc) you mean?

Also, your message has a contradiction worth resolving first: you say your manager is Dana Ruiz, but also that you report directly to Priya Nadella with nobody in between. Those can't both be true. Which is it?

- If Dana is your manager, the normal approver would be Dana, and Priya would only be looped in above her.
- If you truly report straight to Priya, then Dana shouldn't be in the chain at all.

Let me know which reflects your actual reporting line and where the request lives, and I can help you word or route it.
