Planner Premium + Power Automate
Using Power Automate, I could get the plan id through Outlook > Groups > Click on Group > Click Planner
but the plan has a basic(?) plan webid address and this is where my tasks are going not to the premium plan create 1st.
syntax: planner.cloud.microsoft/webui/plan
& then the Power Automate creates the task here instead of in Premium, so this is why I see the Automate flow appear successful. It is it is just not going to plan created.
Note: the group was created when I create the premium plan, below:
Below is the original plan and it is ignored by the Power Automate.
syntax: planner.cloud.microsoft/webui/premiumplan
--no tasks are created here. they get created in a separate plan and separate URL even though you can select Premium name from Power Automate; it creates a different URL (with/without premium options???? remains to be tested)
New update: to above.
The solution temporarily opens up "comment" field which works with group as desired, but then if you want any of the other features of premium, like moving rows, subtasks etc it has to be premium plan.
By click the ... and click any action, Planner will prompt to convert to premium plan: this works, however when you do you lose the comment field again but have all the other features missing from basic are now there........ frustrating. And for whatever reason, the group created for the project, no longer has individual channel status, so the group cannot act like its own channel. Another ticket to be added with Microsoft.
