I am currently labeled as an owner in our teams group but under notification settings I can not see planner, therefore I cant edit the planner notification settings. Everyone else who is a member or owner can see the settings on their end. I have tried everything from clearing cache, signing in and out, deleting and reinstalling teams, deleting planner and readding it. Nothing I do seems to work. If anyone can help me figure out how I can edit planner notifications and at least get it to show up under connected apps that would be great.

    Hi @Jeremiah Durham,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum. 

    Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with us. I understand you’re unable to see Planner under your Teams notification settings, even though you’re listed as an owner and others in the same group can access it. 

    To help narrow down the cause, could you please provide a few additional details: 

    1. Are you using the new Teams app or classic Teams? 
    2. Does the issue occur on both the desktop app and web version? 
    3. Could you confirm if you can access the Planner tab within the affected team itself (for example, by opening the tab and viewing assigned tasks)? 
    4. If possible, please share a screenshot of the notification settings page where Planner should appear, while ensuring no personal information is visible. 

    Note: If you’re an end-user, please contact your organization’s IT administrator and share the steps below so they can verify your Teams app setup policy.  

    In the meantime, please verify that your Teams app setup policy includes Planner: 

    1. Go to the Teams admin center → Teams apps → Setup policies.

    2. Select the policy applied to your account (e.g., Global (Org-wide default)).

    1. Under Installed apps or Pinned apps, confirm that Tasks by Planner and To Do is listed.  
    • If it isn’t, select Add apps, search for "Planner" and add it.

    1. Go to Users > Manage users > [your account] → Policies tab → App setup policy to confirm this policy is assigned to you.

    Also, make sure the app itself is enabled by going to Teams > Apps > Planner, and verify that you can open https://tasks.office.com and access your team’s plan from there.
