Creating Reoccuring Tasks with the Planner "Create a Task" Action

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 26

Hello,

I am trying to using Microsoft Planner to assign and track training tasks for employees. I am creating a flow where a manager can run the flow and add the information for the new employee and the bucket and tasks for them will automatically be assigned. However, I am running into one issue. There is no way within the PowerAutomate planner actions to assign a recurrence frequency for when the action is completed.

This section always comes up as "Does not repeat". Is there a way to set this to a specific repeat frequency using PowerAutomate so that I don't have to manually assign all of them?

    Hi @Ricormy ,

     

    It's premium. If you don't have a premium license, I'm afraid it won't work.

    Hello @v-xiaochen-msft ,

    Is that only available with Power Automate Premium? All the actions I am seeing using Graph are premium only. If not, could you please explain what action should be used in order to update the recurrence as described in that article?

    Thanks!

    Hi @Ricormy ,

     

    The action doesn't support repeat now.

    Please try to call the graph api (beta) in flow.
