Are you looking for a way to automate creating Microsoft Planner tasks from Microsoft Form Submissions? In this Power Automate tutorial, I’ll show you how to build this flow that creates tasks in Planner each time a form is submitted.
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.
