Planner component in Microsoft Graph Toolkit
The Planner component enables the user to view, add, remove, complete, or edit tasks from Microsoft Planner.
In addition, a user is able to assign a single or multiple Microsoft Graph users to a task. For more information about Microsoft Graph assignments, see plannerAssignments.
Important
With the release of @microsoft/mgt-components version 4, the planner component replaces the old task component and no longer supports using Outlook Tasks as a data source.
Example
The following example displays the signed-in user's Microsoft Planner tasks using the mgt-planner component. You can use the code editor to see how properties change the behavior of the component.
Properties
| Attribute | Property | Description |
|---|---|---|
| read-only | readOnly | A Boolean to set the task interface to be read only (no adding or removing tasks). Default is false. |
| hide-header | hideHeader | A Boolean to show or hide the header of the component. Default is false. |
| hide-options | hideOptions | A Boolean to show or hide the options in tasks. Default is false. |
| initial-id="planner_id/folder_id" | initialId | A string ID to set the initially displayed plan to the provided ID. |
| initial-bucket-id="bucket_id" | initialBucketId | A string ID to set the initially displayed bucket to the provided ID. |
| target-id="planner_id/folder_id" | targetId | A string ID to lock the tasks interface to the provided plan ID. |
| target-bucket-id="bucket_id" | targetBucketId | A string ID to lock the tasks interface to the provided bucket ID. |
| group-id | groupId | A string ID to lock the tasks interface to the group ID. |
| - | isNewTaskVisible | Determines whether new task view is visible at render. |
| - | taskFilter | An optional function to filter which tasks are shown to the user. |
The following example shows only tasks from Planner with ID 12345 and doesn't allow the user to create new tasks.
<mgt-planner read-only initial-id="12345"></mgt-planner>
The following example shows how to filter tasks that only have category3 set.
let taskView = document.querySelector("mgt-planner");
taskView.taskFilter = (task) => task.appliedCategories.category3 === true;

Templates
The planner component supports several templates that allow you to replace certain parts of the component. To specify a template, include a <template> element inside a component and set the data-type property to one of the following values:
| Data type | Data context | Description |
|---|---|---|
| task | task: a planner task object | replaces the whole default task. |
| task-details | task: a planner task object | template replaces the details section of the task. |
The following example defines a template for the planner component.
<mgt-planner>
<template data-type="task-details">
<div>Owner: {{task.owner}}</div>
<div>Importance Level: {{task.importance}}</div>
</template>
</mgt-planner>
