Select SharePoint list item and create new planner task with assigned to option

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I'm trying to take a seleted sharepoint list item and create a planner task so it is assigned to a user. At the moment it will only assign it to me, but I'd like to assign the task to whomever is tagged in the item list. Is this possible? I keep getting error 400.

    Hi @ bangorkeith,

     

    Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

    The error 400 appears when action of the flow doesn't function as expected,You could refer to link below to troubleshoot the flow:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/flow/fix-flow-failures

     

    I have made a test on my side,and don't have the issue that you mentioned.

    you could create a flow from sharepoint with template refer to link below:

    https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/flow-in-spo-document-libraries/

     

    You could create a flow from sharepoint with template "Create a Planner task for a selected item", and modify the flow as below:

    I have create a person type column "assign to user" in the sharepoint list, please make sure you have create a person type column in your sharepoint list, ,modify the value in the "Plan Id" field and the "Assigned user Id" field of "Create a task action"

     

    When selete an item in the sharepoint list to run the flow, the flow would run successfully as below:
