Add a task to Planner with Flow, Update Task Step missing Dynamic Task ID option

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

When I use Flow to create a task in planner on a recurring schedule things work well.

 

Once I want Flow to update the Task immediately after creation to populate with details, I need to enter the TaskID. I would like to use dynamic content to populate this with the ID of the task I have just created.

 

When I select the TaskID drop down I do not get the option to use any dynamic content, only a list of tasks already in planner.

 

Am I missing something? Examples I have found online indicate creating a task then using using dynamic content for Task ID should allow this.

 

Cheers,

    Hi @BraedenKing ,

     

    Please click "Enter custom value" and enter Value Id from Create a task action.

    Is this solution still valid? I'm attempting to update task details today and cannot find the 'custom value' option. Was this broken in a recent update?

    Hi
    When you select the drop down beside "task ID" scroll all the way down the bottom and select "enter custom value". This will open the dynamic content options.
