Hi,

Yes you can do this pretty quickly and is easy to setup. There are two different actions, the first is create task on your board. Then using the dynamic_contentID from that action, you can update task details. That's where you are add your attachments.

Thank you so much for your response. Silly question, how do we format the excel doc in order to properly upload?

Hi,

Here's the format. Like Teams, Planner doesn't actually have it's own storage so you can use SharePoint or OneDrive for Business. I prefer SharePoint in this example.
