I'm trying to generate a coupon code for customer once his review comment in woocommerce product is approved. I have the whole code ready but once comment is approved nothing happen.

My code only works with comment_post hook but not with the comment_unapproved_to_approved hook. Any advice?

function action_comment_post_coupon(  $comment, $comment_ID, $comment_approved, $commentdata ) {  
if ( isset ( $commentdata['comment_author_email'] ) ) {
        // Get author email
        $author_email = $commentdata['comment_author_email'];
        
if ( is_email( $author_email ) ) {
            $value = random_int(100000, 999999);
            $customer = $comment->comment_author_email;
            $coupon_code = $value; // Code
            $amount = '20'; // Amount
            $discount_type = 'percent'; // Type: fixed_cart, percent, fixed_product, percent_product

            $coupon = array(
                'post_title' => $coupon_code,
                'post_content' => '',
                'post_status' => 'draft',
                'post_author' => 1,
                'post_type'     => 'shop_coupon'
            );

            $new_coupon_id = wp_insert_post( $coupon );

            // Add meta
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'discount_type', $discount_type );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'coupon_amount', $amount );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'individual_use', 'yes' );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'customer_email', $author_email );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'product_ids',$product_ids );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'exclude_product_ids', '' );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'usage_limit', '1' );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'expiry_date', strtotime(" 14 days") );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'apply_before_tax', 'yes' );
            update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, 'free_shipping', 'no' );
            unset($product_ids);
    
        }
}
}   
add_action( 'comment_unapproved_to_approved', 'action_comment_post_coupon', 10, 4 );

"My code only works with comment_post hook but not with the comment_unapproved_to_approved hook"

As you can see the comment_post hook contains 3 params

/**
 * Fires immediately after a comment is inserted into the database.
 *
 * @since 1.2.0
 * @since 4.5.0 The `$commentdata` parameter was added.
 *
 * @param int        $comment_ID       The comment ID.
 * @param int|string $comment_approved 1 if the comment is approved, 0 if not, 'spam' if spam.
 * @param array      $commentdata      Comment data.
 */
function action_comment_post( $comment_ID, $comment_approved, $commentdata ) {
    // Do something
}
add_action( 'comment_post', 'action_comment_post', 10, 3 );

See: do_action( 'comment_post', int $comment_ID, int|string $comment_approved, array $commentdata )

While the comment_unapproved_to_approved hook contains only 1 which is $comment, therefore just changing hookname is not enough.

See: do_action( "comment_{$old_status}_to_{$new_status}", WP_Comment $comment )

So to answer your question you get:

/**
 * Fires when the comment status is in transition from one specific status to another.
 *
 * The dynamic portions of the hook name, `$old_status`, and `$new_status`,
 * refer to the old and new comment statuses, respectively.
 *
 * Possible hook names include:
 *
 *  - `comment_unapproved_to_approved`
 *  - `comment_spam_to_approved`
 *  - `comment_approved_to_unapproved`
 *  - `comment_spam_to_unapproved`
 *  - `comment_unapproved_to_spam`
 *  - `comment_approved_to_spam`
 *
 * @since 2.7.0
 *
 * @param WP_Comment $comment Comment object.

Note: since WooCommerce 3, your code is a bit outdated. Instead you should better use the available WC_Coupon setter methods.
