Single task to be done by multiple users
With Microsoft Planner, we can add multiple people to a single task, but if anyone of them marks it as complete the whole task will be marked as complete. But I would like to assign a task to my ...
Can I suggest you create one task, and use the checklist to assign a tick box for each person?
At a glance you can then see who has put a tick in their box and who has yet to do so. Relies on honesty that you will only check/tick your own box though.
There's also a suggestion that seems similar in UserVoice for Planner, so go and Vote for it: https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/18848320-allow-complete-task-per-assigned-person
So there is no way out of the box to do this, but you can do it via a flow. Here is an example if you want to generate separate tasks. You could Put in some kind of Keyword such as Group Task: for a task title, which will be true for a condition checking Starts with = Group Task: then iterate through the Team / Group membership and create tasks for each.
You can plug in relevant info, but just an option. It's obviously not something you could do for all Teams, but if you had a specific need you could do this, and it's fairly straight forward to do.
Is there a template for this on power automate? If so, what's the name?
