Importing Excel File to Microsoft Planner

Importing Excel File to Microsoft Planner

Anonymous

I noticed that we can export Planner to excel. Is there anyway of adding the tasks in the excel sheet, then importing it to have planner updated ? Instead of adding the tasks using planner.

Hello Kamil,

thank you for coming to the forum.

From my check the feature you are requesting is not available. So you cannot import directly into the planner from Excel.

But looking around I found some links which I will share below of how some people have found a workaround using Power Automate.
