Connect Planner to Teams

With Tasks by Planner and To Do you can create a kanban board with tasks for the team to complete.

You activate Planner for your team in Microsoft Teams as a banner Posts and Files at the top of the Teams window. As a standard it will show up as Tasks.

  1. At the end of the line with Posts and Files there is a Plus sign. Click on the Plus sign to add an application.

  2. From the App catalog that shows up, choose Tasks by Planner and To Do. Unfortunately Microsoft To Do does not work at UiO, as we do not have our email servers in the cloud.

  3. Then click on Create a new plan or Use an exisisting plan from this teamMark Post to the channel about this tab. You should call your project in Planner something different than suggested tasks, as you quickly might aquire several projects in Planner simultaneously.

  4. End with Save.

You can find the kanban board (project) you created for Teams in Planner by going to https://tasks.office.com in your preferred browser.

Planner is also available as an application for iOS and Android.
