    The Microsoft Planner connector does not currently have support for Planner Checklists. 

    If this is functionality you would like to see added to Flow or a Flow Template, please consider submitting it to the Flow Ideas page, where it can be voted on by other users, and tracked and commented on by the Flow team.

    There are a couple of existing ideas that may be worth voting on, including Trigger for Planner checklist items and Planner - Get more task details

    Hi @giangnguyen ,

     

    You could use Get task details action to get the check list.

    Please try the following configuration.

    Expression reference:

    body('Get_task_details')['checklist']

    I tried to get checklist title but I only get this {"22077":{"@odata.type":"#microsoft.graph.plannerChecklistItem","isChecked":true,"title":"test","orderHint":"8586408495082812292Pn","lastModifiedDateTime":"2019-06-17T07:43:58.2709722Z","lastModifiedBy":{"user":{"displayName":null,"id":"c1d48c12-204c-47a0-9913-44bc9d6a9962"}}}}

     

    Please view my flow for detail

    Hi @giangnguyen ,

     

    In fact, this is the expected result. The checklist returned by the Planner Task API does not seem to exist as an array. The item is returned as multiple Objects, so the property value cannot be directly referenced.

    I originally wanted to parse the response using Parse JSON, but there seems to be no suitable schema to use.

    Maybe I need more time to do research.

     

    If there is only one item in the checklist, you may refer to the following method:

    Schema:

    {
     "type": "object",
     "properties": {
     "19739": {
     "type": "object",
     "properties": {
     "@@odata.type": {
     "type": "string"
     },
     "isChecked": {
     "type": "boolean"
     },
     "title": {
     "type": "string"
     },
     "orderHint": {
     "type": "string"
     },
     "lastModifiedDateTime": {
     "type": "string"
     },
     "lastModifiedBy": {
     "type": "object",
     "properties": {
     "user": {
     "type": "object",
     "properties": {
     "displayName": {},
     "id": {
     "type": "string"
     }
     }
     }
     }
     }
     }
     }
     }
    }

    HI @v-bacao-msft 

     

    Do you get a comment plan?

    I need checklist or comments for when task done. Thanks you

    Hi @giangnguyen ,

     

    Unfortunately, currently unable to get Comments through Flow, I checked the Planner REST API, it seems that the task details does not include comments.

    Please check follow link and get more details:

    I'm assuming that anything going in the opposite direction for this would require the 'Premium connector' HTTP Request ... would that be right, @v-bacao-msft ? Or is there some magic way to leverage your pull into a push?

    This is a good question that I'd also like to know the answer to. Unchecking all of the checklist items for multiple tasks would be very useful functionality, especially considering we can automate with Flows the reopening and re-setting the due dates of recurring tasks.

    Hi,

    I managed to create a flow that loops through all existing checklist items in a task. Maybe this could be useful for what you are trying to do. I wrote a detailled description in this comment: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Getting-Planner-Checklists-in-flow/m-p/718055#M98078

     

    Best wishes
