Email Notifications for New Appointment/Task

I am a "member/guest" in a Team. There is one "owner" who posts new "tasks" under the "Appointments" tab where a member of the Team can "assign" themselves to the task. How can I get an email notification whenever the "owner" adds a new task.

    Hi hannahlamoureux

    So to me the only Notifications for Planner are as follows:

     

    So to achieve what you are after I would be looking to Power Automate Flow to see if there is an Action that could be triggered on a new Task being added to a Plan and then off of that action, add another action to email or notify the relevant individuals.

     

    Thanks
