Allow direct file attachment to Planner Tasks in TEAMS
Provide ability to attach a document to a Planner Task from your Desktop (like you can do in a SP task). Today, you have to upload the document into Teams first, then open your Planner Task and then attach by referencing the previously uploaded document.

it is really time consuming to have to store files in an intermediate place and then upload them to teams rather than being able to drag and drop items (as we are used to)

Our workflow is specifically designed to move attachments that are in pdf through a task workflow approval process, not being able to attach files directly to makes the process not make sense. I built out to the point without having thought of this because it seems like a "core functionality" item.

This is essential for the teams desktop version!

I am trying to implement processes and workflows in our organization using MS teams and other MS products. When I come to blockers/bugs like this it really makes me question the viability of Teams and using it for anything other than a glorified messaging app. If the feature is available for web version, it should be available in the app.

TOTALLY agree with this. Although it is possible by using Planner via web, it should be a standard feature. Very, very annoying.

The irony is not lost on me that you can attach a file to UserVoice comments.

I don't understand this not being a function. Any word from anyone from Microsoft?

On Planner, you can only upload documents from SharePoint or add internet links. This creates extra work. Please enable Planner to upload directly from the PC or OneDrive. Thank you.

I guess this used to be available but is gone in a recent update? Some team members can still *sometimes* use this feature. I don't understand why this ever went away

Hi - I'm a newbie here, so please be kind :) Is there an 'Undo" feature anywhere for a task in a bucket that was accidentally marked as "Completed" ?
Thanks in advance....

Adding on here. These kind of usability hurdles kill adoption of these of tools for employees who are already wary of new things. Trello is Planner's biggest competitor and allows you to drag-and-drop attachments directly into a task. Inexcusable that Microsoft can't have feature parity on its own OS.

For an example, see this comment box, it also allows an attachment with a comment. It makes the comment useful and picture stays with the comment. This will be a very useful feature. Please add this on teams task.

Should be a basic feature. It would be really helpful.

Agreed. I have multiple users asking for this. The lack of this ability forces them to use planner directly, instead of just using Teams client.

Without the ability to add attachments easily to the task in Planner, it makes the app useless. We use Planner for software testing and attach screenshots to the task. Having to upload the screenshots to the Files area makes no sense as they would be completely irrelevant there.
I had to use the web version to use it properly. You should make all web functions available in the app.
