info

If your connected Microsoft account is a personal account, only the option to create a task in To Do
is available.

Other actions - such as creating tasks or comments in Planner or saving meeting notes in OneNote - require a work, school, or university account.

When a personal account is used, these buttons will appear grayed out or unavailable.


Microsoft distinguishes between two main account types:

  1. Microsoft account (personal):
    A personal account you use to access consumer services like Outlook.com, Xbox Live, Skype, or Microsoft Store.
    These accounts are usually linked to an email ending with @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, or similar.

  2. Work, school, or university account:
    An account provided by your organization (e.g. a company or educational institution) that gives access to Microsoft 365, Planner, To Do (work), Teams, OneNote, and other enterprise tools.
