@KE-29010219-0 Unfortunately you are limited to the available automated triggers in Power Automate for Planner. Currently, there are only three:
- When a new task is created
- When a task is completed
- When a task is assigned to me
Here are a couple of YT Tutorials you might be interested in. Although they don't solve your problem they might inspire you to create other flows!
First, I’ll show you how to create a task using the Microsoft Form submission data. Then, I’ll show you how to place a task in a specific bucket based on a selection made in the form as well as how to assign tasks to specific users. At the end of the video I’ll show you how to handle Microsoft Form uploads and how you can attach those to your Planner Tasks.
If you’re looking for a way to quickly create tasks from a SharePoint list or an Excel table—I already have a tutorial on how to do that. Click here to check it out.

When you add attachments to a Planner task from your computer, the files are automatically saved in the Documents document library of the SharePoint site associated with the M365 Group of your plan.
Instead of downloading email attachments to OneDrive or SharePoint just so you can add them to a Planner Task—automate it. In this Microsoft Power Automate Tutorial—I’m going to show you how build a flow that will take your email attachments and add them to a Planner task. All you need to do is copy a link to a task, forward the email to yourself and the attachments will be saved onto SharePoint and attached to your planner task.
At the end of the video I’ll show you how to use Trigger Conditions so this automation only runs when specific conditions are met!
