Hi, urgently looking for some help!

I built a flow in Power Automate for Tasks (Planner) in which

1. I have a set number of buckets (already created)

2. Each bucket has a set checklist (different checklist per bucket, already created)

3. As a task is marked as 'complete' (after all tasks are complete), it is moved to the next bucket automatically, and the new checklist for that bucket comes up - and so far I've been able to move the task ID/name and description as it is completed and moves to the next stage (bucket)

However, I just CANNOT figure out how to migrate labels with the tasks! Screenshot attached

The built-in action only allows you to set the labels when you create the task. You'll need to use an HTTP patch request and the Microsoft Graph API to update the labels. Documentation on this can be found at Update plannerTask - Microsoft Graph v1.0 | Microsoft Learn. This is currently blocked in my tenant so if you have trouble I will not be able to help you, but hopefully there is someone out there who can help.
