Planner Web Part Issues
On a fairly newly created team site (created 2 weeks ago), Planner web part can at times be added but get the following attached error. Other times, this web part is not even listed as a web part for this site. I checked another team site and was successfully able to add the Planner web part. Is there something buggy about this new site that will either not allow us to add the web part or throw an error?
Any guidance on this error would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

I have noticed some oddities around the new web parts recently released, as well. Some sites seem to get them, some don't; and some pages within the site don't always get them even if other pages do. Here's the workaround that seems to fix most of those problems:
1. Make sure you've created AND PUBLISHED at least one other site page (not just editing the default home page). This seems to provision all the extra web parts that have been released since the initial roll out of modern site experiences. Once you've publish any other page, magically those newer web parts will be available on all your other pages.
2. Try editing your page in another browser. I still use IE to work with some other (old) SharePoint sites, and I find that I have a lot of flakiness in the modern experience in IE. Sometimes Edge works better, sometimes Chrome works better, Firefox has been hit or miss - but all three of those alternatives work better than IE (I know, not shocking).
Hi Adrienne,
Thank you for the reply. I've attempted to use the workarounds and none of them seem to work in our case as I had hoped. This is a very strange case.
Hi,
Did you ever get a resolution to this?
Thanks
- Well, best you can do here is open a support ticket.
