How to change a Planner Task's "assignedBy" property

Posted on by yingwu

I am trying create a flow that will update a Planner Task in Teams. I would like to change the "assignedBy", but unable to figure how to.

The reason to change the assignedBy is that: since I am the owner of the Flow that create the task, it always set me as the Assigner of the task. I would like to make my manager as the Assigner. I have tried to make the task creating Flow as a Team Flow, adding my manager as the owner, but still every time the Flow creates a task, I am the Assigner.

Thank you for your help.

Hi @yingwu ,

Now that you have shared this Flow with the Manager, you can suggest that the manager use his own account to create a connection for Create a task action. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/create-team-flows#update-connections

So assigned by will be the Manager. Please take a try and feel free to let us know if you have any questions about this method.

Best Regards,
