However, tasks are retained in their original locations in Planner and To Do. Fenster provides a thorough walkthrough of the flow logic.

It was designed to replace Wunderlist (which Microsoft acquired in 2015) and is a part of the Microsoft 365 suite. The app supports collaborative lists and task assignments, and also features integration with Outlook Tasks.</li><li><b>Microsoft Planner</b>&#58; This is a project management tool developed by Microsoft as a part of the Microsoft 365 suite. Planner is primarily designed for team use. It allows for the creation of plans, assignments of tasks, file sharing, and chat about tasks. Planner offers a visual way to organize teamwork, with a board and card-based interface similar to tools like Trello. Each task can have associated documents or pictures, and each card can be colored coded, for easy visual references.</li><li><b>Microsoft Outlook</b>&#58; This is a personal information manager software system from Microsoft, primarily used as an email application. However, it also includes a calendar, task manager, contact manager, note taking, journal, and web browsing. It is part of the Microsoft 365 suite. With its integration capabilities, you can organize your emails, calendar, and files together. Tasks in Outlook can be standalone or be created from emails, which can then be tracked, collaborated upon, and synced with To Do and Planner.</li></ol><p>The Power Automate flow that Tobias Fenster demonstrated helps to synchronize tasks across these three platforms (To Do, Planner, and Outlook) to streamline task management, reduce redundancy, and enhance productivity.</p><p><br></p><ul><li><a data-cke-saved-href="https&#58;//tobiasfenster.io/adding-all-your-to-do-and-planner-tasks-to-your-calendar-with-power-automate" href="https&#58;//tobiasfenster.io/adding-all-your-to-do-and-planner-tasks-to-your-calendar-with-power-automate">Adding all your To-Do and Planner tasks to your calendar ...</a><br>Feb 25, 2023 — I created a Power Automate flow that collects all of my To-Do tasks and all of the Planner tasks assigned to me, checks to see if they are&#160;...</li><li><a data-cke-saved-href="https&#58;//hwyq.chloro.eu/EN/power-automate-create-planner-task-from-sharepoint-list.html" href="https&#58;//hwyq.chloro.eu/EN/power-automate-create-planner-task-from-sharepoint-list.html">Power automate create planner task from sharepoint list</a><br>2&#160;days ago — Apr 27, 2023 · Task management and Timeboxing within the Microsoft ecosystem, driven by a Power Automate flow Article - Adding all your&#160;...</li><li><a data-cke-saved-href="https&#58;//warner.digital/pnpsummary04272023/" href="https&#58;//warner.digital/pnpsummary04272023/">Power Platform &amp; M365 Dev Community Call – April 27th, ...</a><br>Apr 27, 2023 — Tobias Fenster – Task management and Timeboxing within the Microsoft ecosystem, driven by a Power Automate flow.</li></ul><p><br></p></div></div><div data-sp-canvascontrol="" data-sp-canvasdataversion="1.0" data-sp-controldata="&#123;&quot;controlType&quot;&#58;0,&quot;pageSettingsSlice&quot;&#58;&#123;&quot;isDefaultDescription&quot;&#58;true,&quot;isDefaultThumbnail&quot;&#58;true,&quot;globalRichTextStylingVersion&quot;&#58;0,&quot;rtePageSettings&quot;&#58;&#123;&quot;contentVersion&quot;&#58;4&#125;,&quot;isEmailReady&quot;&#58;false&#125;&#125;"></div></div>
