Way to see all Planner tasks assigned to a team member?
Here is the partial solution I have found to this.
In Planner, if your team member clicks on "assigned to me" they have the option to add their "assigned to me" tasks from Planner to their calendar. They also can copy this link and share with you. In other words, the Planner tasks assigned to your team member are shared with you as an "other calendar" that you can view in your outlook calendar and toggle on and off.
My issue is that when I add a new planner task, it did not update automatically. If I removed their calendar and then added their calendar (with the exact same link I had used previously), the newly added planner task showed up in addition to everything else that had been there previously.
It's the best I've got for now, if anyone knows how to "force sync" a url calendar so that way it updates without having to delete and then "re-add" the "assigned to me" calendar for my teammate.
1) I am thrilled that now within the Teams App, if you open the "Tasks by Planner and To Do" sub-App on the right side there are more features inside of Teams than inside of Planner on the web. Most fun is the "List" view with sort by priorities. It shows ALL team members tasks and breaks down the sequence in a very logical sense:
- Urgent stuff at the top, sorted by due date
- Important stuff next, sorted by due date.
- Medium stuff, sorted by due date.
2) I am getting notifications that sometime in spring 2024, Planner is morphing and becoming more cohesive, similar to the current "Project on the Web".
- Does this solve the problem?

We want to be able to develop a separate plans for separate projects, assign our team members to various tasks within each project, and then view ALL of the tasks for ALL of the projects on one screen (my preference would be the timeline in the new premium plans) instead of having to switch back and forth between plans. This would allow us to actively compare various plans to avoid conflicts, assign priorities, balance workloads, etc
