Thank you for your feedback and patience!

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!

Any development to export comments as well? Especially useful would be a range counter; x1 = last comment, x2 = last two comments etc, etc.

It would be useful to include the comments and a link to task.

There's no data connection. A manual export of a single plan is of very limited value. We need to be able to deeply analyze the data via a Power BI connection.

Wait for adding this

I guess a lot of people would like to be able to export Comments as they, like me, are using this field to capture update information on tasks. Being able to export this would be a win. However, maybe it would be beneficial to actually add a dedicated Update field?

Please add export functionality - some clients like to have a list of tasks, dates, etc. in Excel for their own useage

I followed this link from https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_o365admin-mso_dep365-mso_o365b/import-excel-spreadsheet-to-planner/877d3fa3-b80f-4e58-86da-0f6315c238ea in the expectation that I was adding my voice to "import from Excel TO Planner". All this is about is Export FROM Planner - NO GOOD

We need to make it so that comments also get exported.

I am not seeing the option in our planner. Is there a setting that needs to be updated?

Import from Excel will be even more useful!

Many thanks for the feature.
It would be even more useful to be able get the download URL to make it automatable.

Not too helpful if we can't import the data!

Bernd Großhans commented · July 09, 2019 00:03 · Flag as inappropriate

Admittedly, I'm not really happy with the "finished rolling out" part. As long as comments are not exported, the feature is useless in my scenario.
So please add a feature to export also comments; having it selectable and deselected by default (for backwards compatibility) would be fine for me.
