I am brand new to Loop and tis video was excellent as I have bene trying to work out how to share components into Teams chats and channels. Thumbs up and subscribed!

Scott, this was the best overview of Loop that I have seen so far β and Iβve watched quite a few! One question regarding the meeting notes: letβs assume that you have a project that requires many meetings. Can you create a subdirectory under a project where you would store all your meeting notes? Keep up the great work!
-
Scott, thank you for creating this overview and I have subscribed to keep the learning going. Incredibly helpful as I am new to Loop and Planner. My question is when you are done with a workspace in Loop how do you archive it so it is not a tile on your page? Thank you for your time and feedback in advance.

This looks so much like Notion Thank you for the tutorial
-
Thank you for this useful video @scott brant. I am trying to delete a component that I have created by there is no delete function when I open the component. How do I delete a component? Thanks.
-
Great overview, thanks a ton! Two questions remain regarding the integration of project management apps: 1) Will there be an interface to Azure DevOps? 2) Why did Microsoft first integrate third party tools (Trello, Jira), when there are in house solutions (Project for the Web, DevOps)? Cheers.

This is great. One question about the collaborator, though, especially in meeting notes. Can it be set so that some of attendees can read only while the others can modify?

Hi Scot, thanks for the inspiring video. The first loops are realised and I get nmore and more exciting about the collaborating features of MS! π Now what I cannot achieve is the ability to share a loop component (table for example) with exeternal guests. I have my organisation set to share with "anyone" for sharepoint snd onedrive but this feature is greyed out in the components I want to share. Do you know a workaround for that? My goal is to let external customers fill out a table so our projectteam gets the information in their loop page. Thanks in advance for your reply! :-)

Love the video! While working with tasks in Loop, is there a way to assign a task to a specific bucket in Planner? As well, is there a way to assign categories (like in Outlook) to each task so they can be grouped in MS To Do?
-
Thanks for the video! Question regarding tasks created in loop - are you able to assign a task to multiple individuals and track completion for each individual rather than showing as completed when only one person has completed it? If it will show completed once one assigned user marks task completed, is there any Microsoft apps that would track the individual completion of the same tasks?

curious if i can embed this into a SharePoint homepage

Thank you so much for a detailed video on loop for project management. But have a query which I am not able to get a solution. Say we have a dozen projects, which is part of the workspace. Is there a way how I can use loop to see an overview of all projects, progress status etc, instead of opening up each project and going through the details one by one. Looking forward to your suggestion. Thank you in advance.
-
One thing to remember with planner. The full version are linked to Microsoft Group / Teams. If you add someone to an existing planner the person you add is getting access to the Group/Team it is part of. You may not want that for various reasons. There is no way for separating out the Teams / planner access.
-
Great video! Only question I have about Loop, what happens if the person who created the workspaces leaves, does it stay there if other people are in the workspace or will it dissapear?
-
Can we also add files like excel or word and sync them to MS Loop?
-
Ok, Iβm confused, is this supposed to replace a teams site
-
quick tip - you are way to close when you zoom in, its hard to follow. Keep the view out further.
-
Planner component. I pasted a Planner link onto a Loop page and sadly the Planner component does not materialize. All I get is a URL. Any insight as to why is appreciated.
-
Scott, thank you for the great presentation. But I am sorry but the whole idea of adding another frigging Microsoft (Apple or Google) app is insane to me.

Can't integrate loop with ms project for web?
