Planner Plan Backup Resolved
I've generated version one as a Power Automate solution for everyone to test (see attached). Please be aware that this is an initial release with a few identified bugs, which I am actively addressing for version two.
The known issues include:
- Your plan must have labels assigned to all tasks.
- Comments are currently not included.
- Dates (start dates/end dates) need formatting adjustments.
- User accounts need to be integrated into the automation to ensure that the "Assigned to" column displays full names.
As said, I'm working on resolving these issues for the upcoming version two. Additionally, I am developing a secondary automation to seamlessly transfer data back into Microsoft Planner when necessary.
I'll prioritise addressing these concerns and second automation based on demand, so please share your feedback in the comments or by liking this post.
Thank you for your patience, and I hope you enjoy testing the current version.

The workflow sounds great. Unfortunately, the provided version cannot be imported because the [Content_Types].xml file appears to be incomplete.
Is a more recent version available?
- DelphinaCOct 09, 2024Copper ContributorIt's not working for me, when I go upload in power automate I get an error message/red banner "try again later"... is there a way around this? Thanks!
- Tomas_WiantoApr 22, 2024Copper ContributorHi, any chance that you have reached version 2 for this?
- MatthewJamesDavisJun 09, 2024Iron ContributorHi Tomas, currently working on this. Been tied up in other projects. So version two would cover adding in comments to the back up, and removing the need to always having to label every task. Anything else hoping to see?

MatthewJamesDavis do you have any updates on this? It will be great to have a back up options with comments included. Regards
