Deleting a Plan from Tasks by Planner
Hi CSI_Guy I think there are several options you can use to delete or rename an existing plan. You should be able to rename or delete a plan (not a task), directly from the Teams client.
To do this, go to the Team where you created the Tasks by Planner tab. On the right of the tab you should find a drop down arrow. Here you can rename the tab (not the Planner itself) or delete it. If you click on delete, you have the option to delete the tab only (default) or to delete the whole planner with all tasks.
Second option is to use the planner website. To do so, go the Task by Planner tab in the according Team. Here you can find a globe symbol on the right corner. Click on it. The website for this planner will be opened. Here you can rename the planner (not the tab) or delete the planner, too.
Hope it helps.
I'm having the exact same problem. After deleting the task planner, it still shows up on the left hand navigation within Teams.
Anyone figure this out yet?
Mike_Peerson - Yes, it appears the method mentioned above does work, albeit quite slowly.
So, what you need to do, is go to the channel you linked the Tasks to. At the top (not the left side), click the "+" and add the Tasks by Planner tab. Now, from the Tasks tab, click the drop-down arrow and select remove. I cannot remember the exact steps (and I am afraid to delete the current working schedule I have), so try that and circle back if that doesn't work.
After a few days, the old removed plan will eventually go away from the Tasks tab on the left-side.
Hope that helps!
I came across this and it worked well.
