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

Yes, will be great to have the Planner tasks with its start and end time reflecting in the outlook calendar, even if I have to use a flow to get it there. You started July - when will you be done?

Planner Team. I'm really pumped about your product but I'm having a hard time trying to convince my staff that this is the direction to go because there are several features that are missing. We have been waiting a long time for this product to mature and with features like:
-- Calendar Integration
-- Email notification for tasks
-- Due Date Notification
-- outlook Add in to add planner tasks
-- External User accessThis would help us a great deal move towards Planner.

@admin: Can you, please, give as an update regarding this feature?

The integration of the planner with the calendar was announced in the Office 365 Update for November 2017, but in my planner the calendar does not appear on the menu. What is the plan? How do I enable this option?

It seems you can go in one direction using Flow, but not in the other. I can create a flow that allows creation of a Planner task to a specific Plan from an Outlook task, but I cannot create an Outlook task when a Planner task is created. I can create an Outlook event when a Planner task is created and if I have dates on my task, that might be enough. Calendar is already integrated into Teams so this does not seem to be a big jump for Office365

In this video about the November release, it looks like point 2 from above (schedule view) should be available now, but I can't see it...

Any ETA? Seems like a minimal requirement for planner tbh, how did you launch planner without outlook integration? It's the one thing employees look at all the time.

Why is this taking so long... It is a key feature that needs to be there to make Planner worth using.

What is taking so long to make this feature work? Nearly everyone who has tasks on a deadline wants to be able to view/share them on Outlook calendar. How was this not built in from day one?

Is there a timeline for release of this feature? I get many questions about when this will become available.

A must have for any kanban system. I look forward for this. Until you develop the first item, is there any hack we can use?
