Create a task in Microsoft Planner - Project Manager

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by SweetLew23 5
When trying to automate the creation of tasks in planner through Power Automate, doing so in plans created using the Project Manager template is not achievable. I assume this is because it has not been full released yet. I'm curious if you are granting the ability to perform such an automation to people actively trying to do that. If not, is this something that will be available in the future? Sorry for unrelated category selection

Thank you!

    Hi there!
     
    Not exactly sure what the question is here but I'll give you the most likely answer:
     
    Creating a task in Microsoft Planner, the version you get with a basic 365 install uses these connectors, such as 'create a task', shown below.
     
     
     
    If you are talking about the Planner premium, aka Planner for the Web, those updates occur in Dataverse.  There are 2 key tables plans and tasks.

    Thank you for your response Tom. Apologies for my question nmot being clear. I am not having issues Automating task creation in Planner, as long as the plan was created using any template other then the AI powered Project Manager template. I have created several plans, some using the Project Manager template, others using the basic template. Other the plans created using the basic planner in Planner appear when trying to automate task creation in Power Automate, those that I built using the Project Manager template (see image) do not appear under the Plan Id drop-down. The group Id's are the same.
     
    Thanks again!
