Planner - Every time a comment is made in a task, everyone should get a notification
Hi everyone,
I would like some help. I’m trying to automate a flow via power automation between Microsoft Planner and Outlook: every time a comment is made on a planner task, everybody should receive a notification via e-mail. It might be important to mention this planner includes people from the organization and guests (authorized and added to our tenant).
What I've already tried:
1) I tried to create an automation starting with Microsoft Planner, but the planner's trigger options are only: when a task is created, when a task is assigned to me and when a task is completed. So, I couldn’t go on in this path.
2) I tried to automate using "post a Microsoft Teams message" trigger when “a new email arrives at a Groups mailbox”. I was able to configure the trigger by adding the Groups mailbox and also modified the end of the flow. Instead of the standard use, I used the option "post a choice of options as the flow bot for a user". It worked in the beginning, but it stopped. Couldn’t understand why stopped tho.
Could anyone help me? We are missing important information because stakeholders are not being notified. Thanks!

anatirico we’ve recently gone through the same thing. If you go into the plan on the web. Hit the … at the top, click on conversations. It will open up outlook and the group the plan is associated with which will show all of the comments.
today I made a flow in power automate to forward those comment emails to teams. I’ll see tomorrow if it works. Hope this helps!
