Hi,

 

As jcgonzalezmartin said, this is an expected behavior as "Recent Plans" feature works only in the Planner portal (tasks.office.com) context. You can see plans only that you have visited recently from this portal itself.

    Hi, Kevin_Morgan  and jcgonzalezmartin !

     

    Thank you very much for your inputs.

     

    Another inquiry, when a new task is assigned to you from a new plan where you are not a member, does that plan get automatically added to your plans or do you have to still click on the link on the email for that plan to be added to your plans. 

     

    Thank you again!

      Hi

      AFAIK, no task can be assigned to you if you are not a member of the plan and the assignee picker UI itself list only members of the plan (member of the group the plan is associated). So I think your scenario is not possible to occur.

        Hi, Kevin_Morgan !

         

        As per testing,  you instantly become a member of the plan when a task is assigned to you.

        I am trying to pull all plans (backend) and noticed that that plan will not be automatically listed in your plans without clicking the email link or opening the task.

         

        Any thoughts on this?

         

        Thanks!
