We’ve begun rolling out the Export to Excel feature, and are releasing it out slowly to ensure that there are no issues. If you don’t see this option yet, don’t worry – you’ll be seeing this soon!

As an update, we haven’t reached this feature on our roadmap yet, but are wrapping up some larger items this month that will get us closer. We’ve been discussing how to best implement this feature, and love reading the comments on this thread.

Thank you for the feedback! We love that our customers are interested in utilizing Planner in this way.

As a first step, we have added exporting to Excel to our roadmap and have changed the title of this thread to focus the conversation on this feature. Our team would love to hear more about the specific scenarios you would like to use this for so that we can build the best possible experience around this!

Thanks!

Ability to Import data to planner is required urgently if Planner is to be a successful tool.

We find user adoption way easier when we can export the plan at regular intervals and store as a regular excel file. People feel safer using the new system when we have an old school backup

Seems critical to have a function where you're able to import into Planner from Excel. Is this in the works?
Not many offices have time/personnel who can enter one task at a time.

Why was Planner introduced as a project management tool when only one task can be added at a time? I haven't come across a project in the real world that only has a handful of tasks. The ability to import and add bulk tasks would be great.

Has there been any consideration on the import excel to plan feature? If so, is there an estimated timeline on delivery?

Please also have import Plan from Excel Option. It seems daft to have an export but not an import. This would better help us with Plan Templating.
