Trigger for new item in planner

[InterestedBloke]

It'll be useful to have some Triggers for tasks in Planner, not just actions that are executed based on triggers from elsewhere.

Potential triggers:

• When a new task is created
• When a task is assigned to you
• When a task is put in a category
• Etc.

Right now my office uses a Planner tab in Teams for task management. However, I have no way of knowing when someone, like my boss, assigns a task to me -- there's no notification(s) anywhere. If there was a trigger to check if I've been assigned a new task, I could set an action to email me or notify my phone.

Right on, good point.  Maybe.... Plan> Edit Plan > Click Send notification on plan progress, or even subcribe to plan. Just a suggestion.

I'd like to send an assignee a notification when a task has been assigned to them and create an outlook appointment in their calendar (or a shared calendar) scheduling the work between the the project start and end date.

Hello, we are trying to migrate off of podio into the 365 suite mainly useing teams we where wondering if there is a way to get teams to notify you if you get assigned a task in planner either naturally or using flow since crrently there are no triggers in planner just actions

We need triggers for MS planner so we can bring those tasks to the user level.

MS Planner needs triggers. If this is the starting point for teams activities there should be a way to move trigger from it.

Guys, we realy need this trigger too asap.

This would be useful for those of us in tenants where the default notification options in Planner didn't work (on-prem Exchange, DMARC issues, etc.).  If we had a trigger from within Planner, then we could configure notifications that work on our terms.  🙂
