- MarlinHCopper ContributorWill the functionality from Projects being integrated into Planner be added to the Microsoft Graph API?
- andybryantIron ContributorI can drag an email into the ToDo pane in moments to create a task... When will I be able to move this task into a plan?
- David_HopkinsFormer EmployeeHi Andy. Tasks that you add to your 'Inbox' in To Do are available in your 'Private tasks' list in My Tasks in the new Planner. From there, you can move these tasks to other To Do lists and Basic plans. Moving to premium plans is not yet supported, but we have it on our backlog to support.
- andybryantIron ContributorStrange that you can only move it from the To Do Inbox, not one of the Only You / Private lists. If you use the workflow I described - email into To Do Inbox; then move it to a Plan it loses the attachment email - making this useless...
- sslayerBrass ContributorThey responded to this question earlier and the answer is that this is in backlog purgatory.
- FarrahJCopper ContributorIt would be great to be able to reorder and group pinned plans
- markomcpartlandCopper ContributorWhen adding FIRST comment to a task in a MS Teams tab plan, you cant tag team members directly. The suggestion box pops up and first you need to 'Add someone to the chat', then another pop up appears where yu enter the team member, and then click chat history option Poor UX. please make it 1 step to add an existing team member to any new chats to tasks in a plan ,
- FatimahMCopper ContributorWill the custom fields that are created in planner premium going to be accessible in power automate?
- nkhimaniCopper ContributorIs there a plan to have a built-in integration to popular third party apps like Jira, Freshdesk, or, even Azure DevOps?

- laurennicole21Copper ContributorIs there or will there be the ability to see all plan tasks in Outlook calendar - view all tasks all at once.
- GNATARAJANCopper ContributorAre there any plans to add/show a Planner plan into a PowerApps Model Driven App ?
- MichaePaolucciCopper Contributor
Project for Web Accelerator is a Power App I have used and was mentioned during this webinar. Ironically, when I just searched it up, a video showed up with the webinar's moderator. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/project-for-the-web/deploy-project-for-web-accelerator-power-bi-template
I wish Microsoft chose to pursue this Power App instead of trying to add more enhancements to the new Planner. They are way behind other modern PM tools and I don't think they will catch up. Another option could have been enhancing Azure DevOps for a waterfall/hybrid project approach, but doubt that's going to happen.
