Permissions within Planner
ArekR88 I'm doing some alpha testing on it but it may be possible to set up restrictions by utilizing powerapps. you build your tasks through planner but present the tasks to the users using powerapps by using the planner connector in powerapps. from there you could provide which fields they have access to edit per task and delegate who has permissions to create tasks. Granted this will be a lot of work compared to other 3rd party solutions but it would be more flexible to getting exactly what you want.
- laminblake could you please share with us the whole workaround that you are currently testing?
laminblake that's great but it's a workaround. They should be implementing this basic feature from the beginning.
laminblake I'm interested in this approach as well. I need to create a method for users to submit a request (task) but not assign it or modify it once it is submitted.
- Do you also want the "User" that submits to also "View" the Planner task that is submitted? MS Forms looks to have some of that functionality though I'm definitely not the expert there. We've been playing with using Forms to create a Planner Task but the person still has to be a member of that Planner. We really need a "View Only" ability within MS-Planner - Plans still
laminblake very interesting to read about this approach. Have you succeeded in your "alpha" tests?
