I’m creating a SharePoint site for my HR team to manage and share organizational announcements. On the home page, I’ve added the News web part to showcase these updates. I would like to trigger the out-of-the-box approval process whenever a new News post is created.

However, when I enable the default approval flow, it applies to all pages in the Page Library. This means that any time a page is edited or created, the approval process is triggered. I only want the approval flow to be activated for News posts.

The HR site will contain other pages that don’t need approval for edits. How can I configure the out-of-the-box approval flow so that only News posts trigger the approval process, while other pages can be edited without requiring approval?
