Flows with planer not recognised

Posted on by CC-19081007-0

Hello,

I am working in a big international company and have tried for days to make some simple flows, from scratch and from the templates, to send messages to a group chat in TEAMs when a task in Planer is completed.

The flows never start.

If I make a manual trigger, it never detect completion of tasks.

Chatgpt tells that it is a know error with planer, and suggest to "break" the automatic function by making it myself step by step : list tasks, check % complete, check condition for each task, etc.

It never work.

Even the "list tasks" doesn't work as it only recognize 4 out of 10 tasks created in planer

When I talk to a freelancer helping me with powerapps, flows, etc., he CAN do everything without any problem

He believes that within my organisation, there are policies, securities, vpn, proxy, or whatever that prevent power automate / worflow to work properly

Does anyone knows how to check which security protocol stops power automate / flows to work ?

Thanks

Hi @CC-19081007-0,
I tried to replicate your situation and was able to successfully trigger a flow using the "When a new task is created" trigger in Planner. Here's the code view I used

{ "type": "OpenApiConnection", "inputs": { "parameters": { "groupId": "<group id>", "id": "<planner id>" }, "host": { "apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_planner", "connection": "shared_planner", "operationId": "OnNewTask_V3" } }, "recurrence": { "frequency": "Minute", "interval": 1 }, "splitOn": "@triggerOutputs()?['body/value']" }

As you can see above the trigger checks every one minute if there is a new task created. So there might be a slight delay. For the Trigger and Action make sure you selected the right group and the right Planner. If you selected the right planner, then all the items should show in the List tasks as if you have access you can see everything.

If you're in a corporate environment, organizational policies (VPN, proxy, security settings) might be interfering with Power Automate’s ability to connect to Planner. But as the List tasks Planner action works, I think this does not influence the flow.

IF you need further help please send me a screenshot of your flow!

The first thing to check is the type of Plan you're using. If it's a Planner Premium Plan, then that won't work with Power Automate. This is because Planner Premium Plans aren't actually running in Planner - they're running in Project Online but using the Planner interface. You'll need to use HTTP actions to interface with the Project Online REST API interface to work with them.

If it's a Planner Basic Plan then your trigger should work as expected, as long as you're selecting the correct Plan.
