After creating task in planner from Team conversation , create link in attachements back to orginal

Copper Contributor

Hi, we are building a simple way of managing requests via a teams channel where emails are sent for action. a flow creates the task within planner from the team message. But we would like to add a link back to the original message so that attachments etc can be viewed as required (keeping it simple and not moving attachments to task). I can determine the url to the orginal message. however within flow I cannot get a way to use that link successfully.

Is there a way to link the original team message within the task as an attachment link?

 

Currently

it errors with :

The request is invalid:\r\nOne or more property annotations for property **removed link details ** were found in the complex value without the property to annotate. Complex values must only contain property annotations for existing properties.",

Solved the issue.

Evidently trying to update the task in a 2nd step was part of the issue. but in attempting to put the details into the body as a temporary solution , flow has converted it to a link that works!

 

so to put the link in the body of the task , you simply goto the channel you are working on , on a message in the channel -get link to message, paste this out so you can extract out the link details using edit hyperlink.   then use the first part of the link upto    thread.skype/   paste this into  a flow step HTML to Text and then insert the etag field , wrap all in """  and then just use this in the body section of update task details.

 

you then have a clickable link back to the original message.

Can finally use teams to better manage projects.
