Planner Hyperlinks via Flow's Update Task Details
Greetings all, I have multiple planners that I administer. It is a common desire to have dynamically created hyperlinks added to the planner board tasks that take you to the SharePoint List's line item that was used for creating the task. I have used a power automate flow (solution) for creating said task and hyperlinks from line items. I have used power automate's update task details action to add those dynamic hyperlinks. However, for some unknown reason it also doubles the size of the card with a huge hyperlink to open the task (although the original card hyperlink still works). Why? You can see examples of it in this video at the 13:41 mark. The Planning and Executing columns have tasks with these huge unnecessary task opening links added. Why? And how can a person get rid of those since it seems to be a built in function of the flow action OR the Planner to have that? Having all that extra space taken for no reason just limits the number of tasks that can be on view at any time. I have researched and found blurbs about utilizing an Graph API tool but I'm not granted server access to implement such a thing. Is there another way around this that can be done to have said hyperlinks that DON'T create those huge extra links that are totally unnecessary? Thanks for any assistance on the matter, McGeeks
Can we get Schedule view back?
When showing off Planner to a group of people today they noticed on an older, different plan the Schedule view, and really liked it. Of course, what I was showing them doesn't have that option anymore. Is it possible to to get this view back or if necessary, a "monthly" option within the "Timeline" view? ThanksAbility to send an email to Planner and create a Task
Is this on the roadmap? Our organization is starting to lose the battle of using Planner instead of Trello, pretty much because of the sole feature that Trello allows you to send an email to a specific email address and it will automatically create a Task. It is quite a simple model: Email Subject = Task Title Email Body = Task Description Email Attachments = Task Attachments This would be a massive win for adoption. Looks like this is the entry with the most votes, but there are about 100 of them that individually are asking for the same/similar functionality: https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/13076007-ability-to-add-email-as-planner-taskIs there no way to 'Group by Bucket' in 'My Tasks' ?
When I go to the 'My tasks' section, I don't seem to be able to group by bucket. What is the point of having buckets if I can't sort my tasks by bucket? I don't want to sift through dozens of my colleague's tasks just to find mine, that is the point of having the 'My tasks' section. As my Planner gets more and more tasks, I am finding it harder to manage.
Turning off Email notifications....
Hi there, we have users that complaine about too much EMails send by the Planner App in teams. For instance, they do receive an email every time someone adds a comment to a task, where they are members. And they claim that this is only since last week or so. They want that to be turned off. But I cannot find where it could be located? Can anyone help. Thanks a Million BertholdBackup & Recovery of Planner
We have many staff using Planner (largely in Teams) for project management - it's a great tool! However, we can't find any way to back up or restore a Planner without use of a 3rd party backup/recovery tool. Can anyone offer current thoughts/suggestions on the best way to assure solid backup/recovery options for Planner?
