Hi @Ravi Chinni,
the "Tasks by Planner and ToDo" Teams app can be extended (but with creating a new app), even though it is a proprietary app developed by Microsoft:
- Using the Microsoft Graph API: The Microsoft Graph API provides access to data and resources across Microsoft 365, including Planner and To Do. You can use the API to build custom integrations that allow you to connect the Tasks app with other systems and services. For example, you could build an integration that allows you to create new Planner tasks from within a CRM system or an integration that allows you to view To Do tasks in a project management tool.
- Using the Teams App SDK: The Teams App SDK allows you to build custom Teams apps that can interact with the Tasks app. For example, you could build an app that allows users to filter and sort their tasks in new ways, or an app that allows users to track their progress on tasks over time.
To extend the "Tasks by Planner" app using either of these methods, you will need to create a new Teams app. But you can use the existing Tasks app as a starting point. For example, you could clone the Tasks app repository and then make your own changes to the code.
For example you can:
- Create a new Teams app that allows users to create new Planner tasks from within a CRM system. You could use the Microsoft Graph API to retrieve the list of open opportunities in the CRM system. Then, you could create a new Teams app that allows users to select an opportunity from the list and create a new Planner task for that opportunity.
- Create a new Teams app that allows users to view To Do tasks in a project management tool. You could use the Microsoft Graph API to retrieve the list of To Do tasks for a specific user. Then, you could create a new Teams app that displays the list of To Do tasks in the project management tool.
- Create a new Teams app that allows users to filter and sort their tasks in new ways. You could use the Teams App SDK to create a new Teams app that allows users to filter and sort their tasks by due date, priority, status, or other criteria.
- Create a new Teams app that allows users to track their progress on tasks over time. You could use the Teams App SDK to create a new Teams app that allows users to track their progress on tasks by logging time spent on each task.
These are just a few examples of how you can extend the "Tasks by Planner and ToDo" Teams app using the Microsoft Graph API and Teams App SDK.
