    Dean_Gross Dean we won't be copying the 'content' of the plan, just the structure. It is not intended to be a migration tool. We are focused on the 'template scenario' where I want to reuse the structure, buckets, tasks, checklists from one plan in a new plan. so we actually 'clean out' the plan and reset it to a 'blank' state.

     

    sorry it doesn't help your problem 100%, but that is how it will work

Joanna Parkhurst Thank you Joanna. I need to create a Planner from within a channel in Teams to manage the creation of online courses. Each course has its own channel with Conversations, Notes, Files and Planner. In Planner I can now copy the 'master course creation plan' and all its associated tasks with the click of a single button (Thanks! ;) But I can't do this from within Teams, or indeed, select a duplicated plan from Planner - they don't appear on the selection list :'(

Oh, that is cool. Thanks for the scenario - it is very helpful to have a real world use case we can use.
