Share plans with external people/customers
Please let us share plans with external people. Or at least tell us how to do this! For example, if you work in a project with a customer, they may want insight in your work.

Guest access is live in Planner! To learn more, visit: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Planner-Blog/Bring-your-plans-to-life-with-guests-in-Planner/ba-p/190704
We have two more parts of this feature to deliver:
1) Comments enabled for guests to see and use
2) The ability to invite a guest from within Planner
Thank you again for your patience and feedback on this!
Cheers,
The Planner Team

To add to this - I need to spoon feed the guests and using a URL for them to access is far too much of a mission for them use. They need quick and easy access via a smart device, ideally the planner app

I agree - this is precisely what I'm looking for.
I have guests who cant access the planner app to collaborate.
They have to access the plan via URL.
Extremely impractical and a deal breaker -

Also need to allow guest access in Planner mobile apps otherwise this functionality is pretty useless

This is done right? Consultants (guests) can now comment on the plans that we share with them.

As long as guests can comment on tasks, otherwise pretty much a non-starter.

In creating external access, could you please ensure that security is appropriately configurable - as it may not be appropriate to show / share all tasks or plan elements with all users.

That would be a very important topic

Planner Team - is there an update on this feature? Sharing the plan as a minimal step will provide a great value add for client engagements. Additionally - any way we can export the schedule out to a friendly view to share with externals??

HUGE need for this feature. With the point of Teams being a communication tool, this is an important feature. Hard to believe this flaw was noticed during testing and corrected before being Teams was promoted so heavily at Ignite.

I need this as well. We work collaboratively with Clients and would like to give them access to the Plan for their work as well as all the samples we attach to the tasks. How do we get them access so that they can edit and add attachments as well?

We need this feature very badly on our projects with subcontractors located all over. Meanwhile, what are others doing? I'd rather not use a 3rd party tool.
