I agree - it's deeply annoying.

However, there's been progress albeit, it's still wrong!

Today (2 January 2019) I thought, let me try copying a link to a task card, perhaps they've fixed. Imagine my excitement when it actually did copy something!

Off I went happily into the document where I wanted to place a link to this specific card. I duly clicked the hyperlink and hey presto - disappointment. It took me only to the channel, not to the specific card.

So, progress' (if you can call it that) but nothing usable at all. MS, if you're going to 'fix' the issue, why 'fix it' wrong like this? Link to an item is not the same as link to a channel...

Please can you sort this out???

I am having this behaviour now. A few weeks ago, all was working fine but now today I can't seem to link directly to tasks. Only the channel. Within Teams it is still working but I need to link within Sharepoint and that is no longer working now. Did you have any luck with this?

  Seeing a similar issue - we generate a link to use in a power automate flow - however the link to the planner card doesn't work any longer, even directly in planner - it only opens the planner board but not the task

    AndyNolanJet2 Same here - Links to task just open Planner Board not actual task. Painful.
