Connect Microsoft Planner to Specky
Bring Microsoft Planner tasks into product context, then send approved work back to the plan.
What Microsoft Planner does
The tool, in plain language.
Microsoft Planner organises tasks in plans, buckets, assignments, and due dates for teams working in Microsoft 365.
Why connect it to Specky?
Keep the useful context attached.
Connect Planner when your team already executes there and you want approved product work to arrive with its reason and acceptance criteria attached.
- Microsoft 365 delivery teams
- Approved ticket handoff
- Keeping task status close to product decisions
Specky pulls from Microsoft Planner on a schedule
Specky checks Microsoft Planner for new activity when your workspace syncs. You can also run a sync yourself whenever you need a fresh read.
Know what this connection is for.
A useful integration is clear about its boundary: what Specky can receive, what it returns to your product workflow, and what it deliberately does not do.
You provide
- Records Specky can read from Microsoft Planner
- The credential and optional filters shown in the connect form
Specky gives back
- Typed, searchable evidence in the Product Graph
- Source-linked context for synthesis, decisions, and PRDs
A real example
Specky imports accessible records from Microsoft Planner, preserves their source context, and makes them available beside your other product evidence.
Connecting Microsoft Planner
Here’s the quick version. The setup guide walks through every field and screen.
- 1
Go to Settings → Integrations and click Connect beside Microsoft Planner.
- 2
Approve Microsoft OAuth. Specky requests the least-privilege Planner and group permissions needed to read your tasks and create tasks in plans you can access.

Keep the original source attached so someone else can check it
Before you connect it
How does Specky use my Microsoft Planner data?
It becomes part of your Product Graph, where you can search it alongside related feedback from the rest of your stack. The source stays attached, and your workspace data is not used to train AI models.
Will Specky import my existing Microsoft Planner history?
Yes. The first sync brings in recent Microsoft Planner history, then Specky keeps up with new activity after that.
How long will this take?
Usually a few minutes. You create a credential in Microsoft Planner, paste it into Specky, and you are connected. Step-by-step instructions are in the setup guide.
Can I disconnect Microsoft Planner later?
Yes — go to Settings → Integrations whenever you want. Disconnecting removes the connection and the data it brought in.
Can I use Microsoft Planner on my plan?
Every plan can connect integrations. Your plan sets how many can be active at once, and a few providers are limited to Scale. Settings → Usage shows where you stand.
