Metrics Scorecard and Planner

Power Automate has a few templates for triggering Planner Tasks. However, we want more control on which items do get a Task created during a leadership team review. 

 

Is it possible to create a Planner Task (not Microsoft Outlook Task) from Scorecards by typing TODO in the Check-In Notes? I have read where you can trigger on TODO in other applications to trigger the creation of a Planner Task.

 

Thanks!

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Yes, you can use the When some adds or edits a goal check-in trigger action. In the settings of that action you can add a trigger condition to double check if the check-in notes text contains TODO.

     

    Below is an example

     

    @contains(triggerOutputs()?['body/notes']?[0]?['body'], 'TODO')
