Is it possible to filter the event trigger on requests that have passed 1st approver (if we have multiple stages of approvals)?

Else, could it be possible to have 1 approver stage, and in the workflow dynamically add a 2nd approver to the access request for identities that are, for example, in a specific department? I have not found any APIs where I can PATCH pending access requests however…
