Can Planner in a Team have different people on different plans?

Occasional Contributor

If I try to add more than one Plans in a Team, I can't seem to individually control which users see each of those plans. Every Plan inside a Team seems has the same set of members which is not what I'd like. I'd like to be able to give access to specific members on specific Plans. I understand that I can create a new Team with specific members and create a Plan in that other Team, but that;s not what I want to do.

Hi! You can’t do this unfortunately! Every plan created within a team are based upon that underlying office 365 group and those members

@adam deltingerThanks. Is there a way then, to move tasks from one Plan to another Plan that's outside that team?

Sure! It’s also possible to do stuff like this programmatically but here is a built in copy task feature:

@abbasjaffarali Using the Planner built-in function 'Move Task' is limited. The tasks can be moved to any plan within the same Team (Office365 group) and not outside the team. You need to use third-party apps to do this easily. Let me know if you need any suggestions.
