Insert a table into the Planner task description through Power Automate

Copper Contributor

Hi,

 

I've been trying to understand how you can insert a table in the Planner task description through Power Automate.

 

I can see that you can create a table in Microsoft Word then paste this into the Planner task description as shown below but I'm getting no luck in trying to re-create this through Power Automate (update task details).

I've tried to use the get task details for this task and it shows a string of 

"| Location |  |\r\n| --- | --- |\r\n| Name |  |\r\n| Contact Number |  |\r\n| Email |  |\r\n| Reason for request |  |\r\n| Actions required |  |\r\n| Initially Assignees |  |" then when I try to use this as a template for the action Update task details, it produces this as a string rather than a table. I've also used the Graph API to get the task details but it shows exactly the same as the string already mentioned.

I'd be really grateful if anyone could help!
