Create unique task ID and add to task in MS Planner

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 23

Hi. 

 

Im currently trying to setup my MS Planner via Power Automate. 

 

Therefore i need to find out how to make the task get a System Generated Number ( 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004... )

Is there a way for it to count up that way on the Task ID?

 

I've searched on the internet about this. The only thing I could find, was this:

In the "Update a Task" field:

concat(triggerOutputs()?['body/title'],triggerOutputs()?['body/id'])

 

 

But when im using this, i dont get a number, but more like this:

Anyone have some ideas on how to fix this?

 

 

 

 

(Btw im new to Power Automate)

    @Rasmus05 the only idea I have is to use a sharepoint list. Before you create a new task you would create a new list item. You could then use the item ID as your running number in planner.
