Hi,

 

Please, I need that when I finish a task in a certain bucket, this issue will go to another bucket with the status in progress.

 

Thank you!

 

Best regards,

    Hi there!  So, the theory part:  

    I'm presuming you mean tasks and buckets in MS Planner, is that correct?

    If so, use the trigger, "When a task is completed" and the Action "update a task", and I think you can update the bucket using some kind of ID.

     

    Try it out and let us know how it pans out.

    Ah.  Bummer.  It looks like PowerShell might be an option if you're into that.

    Hi @Haufe ,

     

    Do you want to create a task in another bucket when the task completed in certain bucket?

     

    Please check if the following flow will work for you.

     

    Trigger the flow with When a task is completed.

     

    Add a Condition to check if the task comes from certain bucket. You need to get the certain bucket id first.

    Triggerbody()?[‘bucketid’] is equal to 8pezjluDYESvOAIRwwVQYMkAJxmM

     

    Under if yes branch, create a task with needed value.

     

    Then update a task to update the progress to “In Progress”.

    Hi @Haufe ,

     

    I am afraid that not all the dynamic contents could be get.

     

    We could get information on Title, Start date time, Due date time, but no others.
