Hello!

Thank you again for your feedback and patience. We’re happy to announce that the schedule view of tasks is fully implemented and the iCalendar format feed is coming soon! Head over to tasks.office.com to check it out!

Here’s a link to our support article to learn more about viewing your tasks on a calendar: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/view-your-tasks-on-a-calendar-8647d2c9-9bc7-466a-b5b3-74b3596fade2?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

If you’re still interested in an integration with Outlook, please follow along with the conversation on this thread: https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/11037114-integration-with-outlook-tasks

We’d love to hear your thoughts on these two new features! Feel free to comment below, send us a smile through the O365 menu (select the question mark icon, click ‘feedback’, then include the word “Planner”), or tweet using #MicrosoftPlanner.

Cheers,

The Planner Team

Hello!

Thank you your feedback and patience. We’re in the testing phases of development for both an iCalendar feed from Planner and a schedule view of your tasks. We will be pushing both to production soon and will update this thread as soon as we do!

Hello,

We’ve started development on the first item:
1. Support viewing Planner Tasks on an Outlook Calendar
We will add the ability to turn on an iCalendar feed (.ics feed) for the “My Tasks” view and for each Plan. You can subscribe to this feed in Outlook to see Planner tasks in context with your other events.

We expect to start work on the second item soon:
2. Create a Calendar/Schedule visualization
We’ll create a new view that allows you to easily view and edit tasks in the context of a calendar.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the feedback on this item. We have several features planned in this space. The main items we’ll work on first include:
1. Support viewing Planner Tasks on an Outlook Calendar
We will add the ability to turn on an iCalendar feed (.ics feed) for the “My Tasks” view and for each Plan. You can subscribe to this feed in Outlook to see Planner tasks in context with your other events.
2. Create a Calendar/Schedule visualization
We’ll create a new view that allows you to easily view and edit tasks in the context of a calendar.

As noted, we are planning other feature in this space, including deeper integration with Outlook and other parts of Office 365. Let us know in the comments how you’d like to use calendar integration.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback on this feature. We are exploring a few options for providing a Calendar/Schedule oriented visualization for Planner tasks.
