Email Notifications for Comments on Planner Tasks
Please add the ability for the assigned person(s) / creator on a Planner Task to receive an email when the task is commented on. I use Planner to manage tasks assigned to several different departmen...
Hi Santhosh, When a comment is made to a task in planner, is there a way such that ONLY the people to which the task is assigned get an email notification? I think the default is for the whole group to get notified.
I would also like to know this - for everyone in our group to receive notifications when any comment is made will result in being swamped in emails! It needs to be able to be tailored to just those people assigned in the task. lukebeckman
badgerjockey a workaround is you have each assignee when they get the notification that a task has been assigned to them, immediately acknowledge this with a comment. they will then get each new comment on their assigned task and it wont go to the entire group. This goes with setting the "Recieve only replies to you" in the Outlook group settings for the task group.
