Læs siden på dansk You connect Planner & To Do by logging in at Microsoft with your work or school account and approving Consile. Consile stores the resulting access encrypted per customer. Your AI never sees the access itself, only answers to your questions. See Planner & To Do for what the connector can do.
You need an active Planner & To Do subscription in the portal, or the system must be included in your plan (the free edition or the Consile Studio membership). You must log in with a Microsoft work or school account that has Planner and To Do in its Microsoft 365 licence. Your AI (Claude or ChatGPT) can be added before or after.
The connection applies to your whole Consile account. All users with access to Planner & To Do in Consile read through the Microsoft user that is connected, and so see the same plans and To Do lists, even if a colleague connected it. Anyone on the team can connect an agreement that is not connected yet. Only an administrator can reconnect it or disconnect it, because that changes the connection for everyone. If an administrator reconnects with a different Microsoft account, it replaces the existing connection.

​
Choose the right Microsoft user

The Microsoft user you log in with decides what your AI can see: the Planner plans the user is a member of, the user’s own Planner tasks and the user’s To Do lists. When your AI asks for “my tasks”, it means the connected user’s tasks, no matter which colleague in Consile is asking. So connect with the user whose tasks your AI should work with. If several people should each have their own tasks, each one needs their own agreement. See Multiple Microsoft users.

​
How to connect

1

Open the connector in the portal

Go to Planner & To Do in the portal. Click Connect now at the top of the page, or Connect next to the agreement on the Connections card. The portal calls each connection to the system an agreement. Right after the purchase, the Connect Planner & To Do button on the Subscription activated page takes you to that page. If you have not accepted Consile’s terms yet, you are asked to do so first.
2

Authorise access

In the Connect Microsoft step, the portal shows the three permissions Consile asks Microsoft for: Tasks.Read, User.Read and offline_access. Click Authorise access. You are sent to Microsoft’s login.
3

Log in with your work account

Log in with the Microsoft work or school account whose plans and tasks your AI should be able to read. Microsoft refuses a login with a personal Microsoft account.
4

Confirm with Microsoft

Microsoft shows that Consile is asking to read your tasks, read your profile and keep that access. Confirm to continue. You are then sent back to the portal. If Microsoft instead asks for an administrator’s approval, see below.
The portal shows Planner & To Do is connected, and the agreement shows as Connected. On the connector’s page, the agreement is named after the connected user, for example <name> (<name>@example.com). Your AI can now read the user’s plans and To Do lists. If you have not already added the address https://mcp.consile.ai/planner/mcp in your AI, do it now.
The connection is shared by the whole company, so colleagues do not have to connect Planner & To Do again to use it. An administrator gives them access under Team, and each colleague adds the address in their own AI and logs in with their own Consile login. See Team.

​
If Microsoft asks for administrator approval

In many organizations, a regular user may not approve an app that reads tasks on their own. Then Microsoft shows that an administrator’s approval is required, and you cannot continue. There are two ways forward:
  • An administrator connects first. A Microsoft administrator in your organization (for example a global administrator) clicks Connect in the Consile portal and, on Microsoft’s approval page, ticks the box to consent on behalf of the whole organization. After that, your users can connect without being stopped. Remember that the agreement reads as the user who connects. If the agreement should read another user’s tasks, let that user connect afterwards. Reconnecting an agreement requires a Consile administrator.
  • Approval through a request. If your organization has turned on admin consent requests in Microsoft Entra, you can send a request from Microsoft’s page. Once an administrator has approved it, connect again from the portal.
Contact your Microsoft administrator, or write to support@consile.dk, if you are in doubt.

​
What exactly am I approving?

Read-only

Tasks.Read gives read access to the user’s Planner tasks and To Do lists. User.Read gives read access to the user’s own profile, so the portal can show who the agreement is connected with. Neither of them can change anything. offline_access gives the renewable access that keeps the connection alive.

Only tasks and your profile

The approval does not give access to your user directory. That is why assignees are shown as user ids and not as names. If one of the permissions is missing from Microsoft’s approval, the connection is refused.

Encrypted per customer

Consile stores the access encrypted with a key that applies only to your account, and never logs it. It is renewed automatically in the background.

Your AI never sees it

Your AI is never given the access itself, only answers to your questions.

​
The access is renewed, but the connection can stop

Consile renews the access automatically, so you do not have to reconnect during normal use.
If the renewal fails, or Microsoft refuses the access (for example because Consile has been removed in your Microsoft organization), your AI is told that the connection must be set up again from the Consile portal. The portal can still show Connected, because the stored access is still there.
How an administrator reconnects:
  • If the agreement says Access revoked, click Reconnect, and follow the steps above.
  • Otherwise: click the menu (the three dots) next to the agreement on the Connections card, choose Disconnect, and confirm with Disconnect. Then click Connect, and follow the steps above.
  • You can also ask your AI for a new connection link. Ask in the connector that belongs to the agreement (for example planner-2), so the link connects exactly that agreement.
If you reconnect with a different Microsoft user than before, the page after the connection says Note: This portal is now connected to a different account than before. Check the portal list if that wasn’t intended. The word portal here means agreement.
If your AI is instead told that Planner answered 403, the connected user lacks access to the plan or task, or your administrator has not approved the permission the tool needs. Reconnecting does not help. Ask a Microsoft 365 administrator for help.

​
If the connection fails

If the approval does not succeed, the portal shows Connection was not completed and a technical reason. The most common ones:
  • token_exchange_failed: Microsoft did not send back a valid approval, typically because you cancelled at Microsoft. Try again, and approve the access.
  • unexpected_scope: Microsoft did not grant the permissions Consile asks for. Try again, and approve all the permissions.
  • no_refresh_token: Microsoft did not return renewable access. Try again.
  • state_expired, invalid_state or state_unknown_or_consumed: more than 10 minutes passed, or the same approval was used twice (for example with the browser’s back button). Start over in the portal.
Click Try again to get back to the connector’s page, and start over with Connect now or Connect. If that does not help, write to support@consile.dk and include the technical reason.

​
Multiple Microsoft users

One agreement is one connected Microsoft user. There are two reasons to add another agreement:
  • Another employee’s tasks. Connect the new agreement with that employee’s own Microsoft account. Then your AI has a connector for each person’s plans and To Do lists.
  • Another Microsoft organization. Connect the new agreement with a work account in the other organization.
1

Add an agreement

Open Planner & To Do in the portal. On the Connections card, an administrator clicks Add agreement (74.50 kr/mo.). The agreement is added to the existing subscription and charged pro rata for the rest of the period.
2

Connect the agreement

When the new agreement is ready (typically after a few seconds), click Connect next to it and complete the steps above with the Microsoft user the agreement should read as.
3

Add the address in your AI

Each agreement has its own address, for example https://mcp.consile.ai/planner-2/mcp. Copy it from the card, and add it as an extra connector in your AI.
If you connect the new agreement with a Microsoft user that is already connected on another agreement, the connection is updated on the existing agreement instead. The page after the connection says Note: This account was already connected as another portal, so that connection was refreshed instead. The new slot is still free. The word portal here means agreement. Connect the free agreement with another Microsoft user. If you are logged in at Microsoft with the wrong account, log out at Microsoft first. Under the Consile Studio membership and in the free edition, other rules apply to adding an agreement. The Connections card shows what applies to you. An administrator removes an agreement with the menu next to it: choose Remove the agreement, and confirm with Remove agreement. If you remove an agreement that is not the last one, the last agreement moves up into the free slot and takes its address (for example https://mcp.consile.ai/planner-2/mcp instead of https://mcp.consile.ai/planner-3/mcp). You must update the address in your AI. You remove the last agreement by cancelling the subscription under Subscription.

​
Revoke access

You can remove the access again at any time:
  • In the portal: an administrator clicks the menu (the three dots) next to the agreement on the Connections card, chooses Disconnect and confirms with Disconnect. The stored access is deleted at Consile right away. The subscription continues until an administrator cancels it under Subscription. If you have several agreements, an administrator can also remove an agreement entirely with Remove the agreement. Its access is then deleted too.
  • At Microsoft: the approval stays in your Microsoft organization until you remove it yourselves. If you also want to remove it, an administrator does so under Enterprise apps in the Microsoft Entra admin center. Shortly after, the connector stops working, but the portal can still show it as Connected until you disconnect it in the portal.
  • When the subscription ends: if you cancel Planner & To Do under Subscription, Consile automatically deletes the stored access when the subscription ends. If a payment is only late, the tools do not work in the meantime, but the stored access is kept, so the connection works again without a new approval once the payment is in place.
