When we create a Private Channel in Teams, creating a Planner is not an option in the channel tab. This would be helpful: to allow this subgroup of people to work together on a confidential activity within a team.

The ability to copy a Plan was recently released (see link below) but this only provides the ability to copy a plan to a new O365 Group. It does not provide the ability to copy a plan to an existing O365 Group. Most people do not want to create a new O365 Group for every Plan they have (Group sprawl). Please offer an option when copying a Plan to either target an existing Group or a new Group based on your preference.

Change the from address of the comment notifications for Microsoft Planner, especially for guest users that don't include Microsoft e-mail servers in their DNS SPF record.

In the comments section Text erases if you don't hit "send" or click off the page. This can waste tons of man hours by one mistaken click. Make it auto save and make the text editable.

1. Notifications to the task creator on any changes to a task's status in planner


2. Email notifications should include the plan/board that that the task is associated to or a part of


3. User should be able to @mention other users within a task


4. User should be able to create private channels within a team

Guest users should be notified by e-mail for any new assignments, due dates and late tasks. At the moment, only Members and Owners receive reminders for assigned tasks.

1. When a task is assigned to a guest, they should receive an e-mail with the information sent to their e-mail address outside of the Office 365 tenant.




2. Reminders sent to the guest's e-mail address




3. Updates to the task sent to the guest's e-mail address.

1. Please add a keyboard shortcut to submit a comment after I've finished typing


2. Let us edit my own comments (with audit history)


3. Thread comment responses (like in teams)


4. @mention users in comments

Copy Plan does not copy attachments of the type link.
We wanted to use planner for onboarding and as project templates and attached relevant links for the various tasks.
Unfortunately planner does not copy the links nor offers it the option to do so.
Without the functionality our use cases don't make any sense.

I'd appreciate to have the possibility to see when a due date has been changed by a team member. Currently everyone can change due dates and you won't be able to realize in case you don't know all the dates by heart.

I save a screenshot as screenshot.png in my Downloads-Folder (Win). Then I upload this screenshot to a planner task - works fine so far.
I save another (different) screenshot as screenshot.png in my Downloads-Folder. In other words I overwrite the file. When I now upload the file in a (different) planner task, planner takes the file from cache => I have the wrong file in the task.

For all comments, email notifications need to be sent to all assigned to that task. That is the main use of Planner. If team members have completed their task; they can remove themselves from the assigned list, to stop the unwanted emails.

It would be nice to be able to tag or @ people in the comments section so they get a notification.

The possibility to assign a task owner and observers additionally to asignees.

The assignee is responsible for the task, but the observers also get all notifications and are potentially involved.

The creator of a task should automatically be asigned as owner.

Where to get luxury car to rent in Europe? Maybe you can give good advice or contact me with some company?
I don`t know where to get cool car for my vacation in Europe.

I was excited to see the option to copy plans. However, I quickly became disappointed when I found out that assignments, dates and attachments did not transfer over in the copying process. VERY frustrating. This made the Planner tool much less useful to us.
This issue could be fixed if in the copying process there was a toggle to select which items the user does or does not want to be copied within the tasks.
I hope that these type of enhancement is something that you'll consider to make MA Planner the most user friendly possible. thanks.

Hi, as a team leader i would like to have a view showing all tasks from different project for all my team members.

Could be simular to the my tasks view but show task for all my team members.

Really what would be helpful is if you could create a planner template as that is what users are wanting. Copy plan is GREAT but a complete waste if you references to supporting documents attached to a plan (i can see not wanting to copy plan specific documents related to the plan in progress, but the ability to copy attachments in a planner set aside as a template from which to copy is desperately needed...why allow copy of attachments at the copy task level but not at the copy plan level?)

In each card's notes section, it would be great to have more journal like formatting for the text. For example, the ability to underline or bold like I do in one note. Any comments all mesh together without visual formatting

We'd like to be able to include the comments field in a task export.
