The way I've done it in the past is to store the Approval data (Approval status, date, submitter, approver...) somewhere then use that destination as the source for Power BI. You may use an Excel table, a SharePoint list, Dataverse for Teams, Dataverse from PowerApps, SQL Server... it depends on how much data you're going to generate and what you're most comfortable using.
