Allow ability to copy the full "Bucket" of tasks in MS Planner.

Allow ability to copy the full "Bucket" of tasks in MS Planner. Currently we can copy a task, but would love to be able to copy or duplicate a full bucket!

    As most people said, I'm wasting a lot of time copying every task to a new Bucket....

    Would be so timesaving - As I am just googling now if there is a way to copy my 9 repeated tasks to a new duplicate bucket

    I have a bucket list that consist of 10 different Zones. I can copy the entire bucket to create a new week.
    But there is a problem with this all changes made on the new week and anything there it make same changes to every single one of them. Is there something else that needs to be done when making the copy? Even if the next week is renamed it still does not matter and makes the change to all weeks.

    I honestly don't understand how conceptually this wasn't part of the original design for creating buckets in MS Planner. Some type of simple 'Ctrl+A' feature to copy all tasks in a given bucket for easy duplication to another bucket. Eesh...quite an oversight.

    Sign me up for this option. It would be even better if a Team template could be copied that kept all the channels, tabs, and Planner tasks instead of only copying over the channels. I want to use the channels as phases in a process with the Planner tabs for each channel capturing the steps for completing each phase of the process. Would be a BIG time saver. Thanks.

    Yes! I'm trying to use this tool with similar tasks for various teams and various times. It would be efficient to be able to duplicate multiple tasks at one time.

    Yes, I want to implement several task templates for daily checklists that need to be copied to a bucket representing next week's work. Not only do I have multiple checklists to copy in from each template, but I want to make a copy for each day of the week so that each checklist can be completed and persisted daily.

    This feels like something that should already be available, is there a way of doing it that I am missing??? It's very time consuming copying each task that I am contemplating returning to Trello, even though I feel Planner will have other great benefits.

    I agree. It would also be nice to be able to make a kind of template for your tabs/buckets/task.

    Yes, please add this capability, otherwise the whole concept of ‘templates’ is kind of lame!
