The goal is simple.

00:00:07

Know how to open Microsoft Planner

00:00:10

regardless of the device you're using

00:00:13

before moving on to creating your first plan.

00:00:16

Let's start with the web version

00:00:19

from your Microsoft 365 portal,

00:00:22

then in the list of applications select planner.

00:00:28

You can also directly type the address

00:00:31

planner.cloud.

00:00:32

Microsoft.

00:00:34

You will be redirected to your workspace as long as

00:00:37

you are logged in with a work or school account.

00:00:40

No extension is required.

00:00:42

Everything is done in the browser.

00:00:45

If you are using Microsoft Teams,

00:00:48

look at the left sidebar.

00:00:50

The icon is now called planner.

00:00:53

A click opens the same interfaces on the web.

00:00:57

You can also add an existing plan as a tab in any channel

00:01:03

so the whole team can see it at a glance.

00:01:09

On phone,

00:01:10

you can install the Microsoft Planner application from the App Store or

00:01:15

Google Play.

00:01:16

Sign in with your Microsoft 365 work or school account

00:01:21

as personal Outlook.com accounts are not supported.

00:01:25

The interface is lighter but still provides access to your plans,

00:01:29

assigned tasks,

00:01:30

and push notifications.

00:01:34

Planners included in all Microsoft 365 business,

00:01:37

enterprise,

00:01:38

and education plans.

00:01:42

If your organization has one of these licenses,

00:01:45

you have access at no additional cost.

00:01:48

However,

00:01:49

there is a paid edition called Planner Premium

00:01:52

accessible through Project Plan 3 or Project Plan 5 subscriptions.

00:01:57

It adds advanced features,

00:01:59

multi-plan portfolio,

00:02:01

timeline,

00:02:02

co-pilot,

00:02:03

interactive reports,

00:02:05

etc.

00:02:07

In all the upcoming tutorials we will work

00:02:09

exclusively on the standard version or basic plan

00:02:12

so that everyone can follow along without prerequisites or additional cost.

00:02:19

When opened,

00:02:20

Microsoft Planner defaults to the my task page

00:02:25

in the left sidebar menu,

00:02:27

you also access the my day section,

00:02:30

which allows you to highlight the tasks you want to prioritize daily.

00:02:35

The my tasks section groups together all the tasks that have been assigned to you,

00:02:42

including those created by your colleagues in different plans

00:02:45

at the bottom of this menu,

00:02:47

the new plan button allows you to create a blank plan

00:02:51

or start from an existing template.

00:02:54

We will explore this feature in the next module.

00:02:59

In summary,

00:02:59

there are 3 ways to access Planner

00:03:02

via the browser,

00:03:03

through Teams,

00:03:04

and with the mobile app.

00:03:06

As long as you have a Microsoft 365 work or school account,

00:03:11

planner follows you everywhere.

00:03:13

In module 3,

00:03:14

we will put this into practice by creating your first plan

00:03:18

and configuring it step by step.
