Ability to send an email to Planner and create a Task
I've adopted the flow called: 'Create a task in Planner when a new emial arrives in a shared mialbox' in a way that I have a tag in the subject line which is needed to trigger the flow.
Since the subject line is used as a task title, the tag is removed in the process.
However I don't see an option to add attachments to the task as neither "Update task details" nor "Update task" step provides an option to add attachments.
The last step in the flow deletes the flow triggering email from the shared mailbox.

I've created a power automate flow to create a task when a forms is completed.
I've ran in the same problem than you about filling all the task's informations. Flow's connector is not complete...
So i've done differently : Only one document in the form is possible, my flow go read in the excel sheet where are stored the forms answer to take the localisation of the file and i've formatted all the information i need in the task's comment section.
Maybe you should go by the same way : "when an email is send with "keyword" in title" / create a line in excel sheet / then create a task with information in the excel sheet.
But you will probably need to use variable definition and function to cut your information in the mail and put in inside comment task...
