what is plan for task level permissions.. restricting only assigned user to take action on task. Have seen many incident where others have accidently completed tasks not assigned to them as its just a gentle touch to complete task 🙂

Thats a wrap! Thank you all for joining us for the Microsoft Planner AMA! We appreciate all the great questions and hope you learned something new! I'll be locking this event to new questions, but our experts will still be able to respond to any unanswered questions.
If you have more questions for the team, please head over to the Planner Community discussion space to continue the conversation. - Planner - Microsoft Community Hub
If you would like to leave any additional feedback, please use the Feedback portal: https://aka.ms/plannerfeedback
- Will you offer certifications for Planner?
- I think this was mentioned yesterday but, will there be sessions on the new Planner at the M365 Community Conference in Orlando?

Hi Brenda, Yes, we will have many experts at M365 Conference and a session: There will be more opportunity to engage with customers at the Microsoft 365 Community Conference, taking place April 30 – May 3 in Orlando. Customers can attend our session, “Unifying Task Management in Microsoft Teams,” and ask our on-site experts how to get started with Planner in Teams.
- Nnoooo! Having to rely on teams for a notification queue is not the way to go!!! The teams notification is ALREADY cluttered Plus there are some companies who don’t want to and refuse to use teams Using teams to get a full list of tasks activity is not positioning planner as a stand alone solution! This decision will only drive more people towards clickup! Besides, planner having their own notification queue will help us stay organized when it pertains to TASKS AND COMMENT-RELATED TASKS-BASED NOTIFICATIONS ALONE… We SHOULD NOT BE FORCED TO USE TEAMS FOR A NOTIFICATION QUEUE!!
Absolutely agree! Planner should be a self-contained app and not rely on Teams. Teams notifications can get too cluttered and it would be advantageous to have only Task notifications within the app built for Projects and Tasks.
- Totally agree, shooting themselves in the foot relying on Teams here.
- agreed. At least make it optional, but I'd rather see the activity history in the Planner UI
- When you create a recurring task, with a monthly recurrence, the recurrence is recreated as soon as the tasks is completed, it does not get recreated in the next month on next week based on the recurrence settings. Is there a plan to get the recurring tasks to be recurring according to the settings?
I've seen this change recently and there is now a toggle introduced in the Schedule view to "Hide future recurring tasks". Maybe having this toggle on the other views may be helpful?
- We love it for individual task management. One of the key lessons we've learned is that date assignments really matter, otherwise, tasks tend to get lost at the bottom of the list of My Tasks.
- Is there a known date when the new planner will be 100% rolled out?
- Laura_BeckerHi Kate, We are rolling out the Teams Planner app slowly to make sure we get feedback and address any bugs. We hope to have it rolled out over the next month and then we will also be bringing Copilot to general availability.
- Wait - so if you're using Planner for 1-1s that means other people in the group are privied to private discussions/tasks not related to them?
- Considering leveraging Teams and Planner for Incident Response events.
