# Submit Records for Approval by Using the Request Approval Component

Add the Request Approval component to record pages to integrate autolaunched flow approval processes into your record pages. Configure the component in Lightning App Builder to require submitters to select the first approver and add comments about their approval request. The component works only with Flow Approval Processes, not with Classic Approval Processes.

**Where:** This change applies to Lightning Experience in Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer editions.
