Microsoft planner: send email when task is moved to different bucket

[ea0710]

Hey!

Is it possible to build a flow that send an email when a task has been moved to another bucket in Microsoft planner?

We can drag the task manually. We only want to sent out a notification when we have done that.

Looking forward to your replies 🙂

Hi @ea0710 

Thank you for posting.

According to your description, you would like to trigger when task is moved to another bucket and then send notification.

I’m afraid it’s impossible to achieve it in flow directly right now. As you can see, there is only 3 types of trigger in planner. None of them can be used to trigger the task movement.

If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum.

However, there is a workaround from 3rd part website which is trying to compare bucketID and checking task percentage every minute. Not sure if it may meet your requirement, but you can have a try.
