I think it has a lot of potential. I personally use to for classes note-taking, and at work we use when we need to collaborate on the same documents, my department loves it ever since I showed it to them!
thanks for the great video. is there a way to combine the tasks from several meetings into one task list for the workspace? hate to have to go through all previous meetings to see if all the tasks are finished
Recurring meetings appear under "meeting notes". Each occurrence create a new loop. The loops will cascade under your meeting title in the "meeting notes" section. GL.
A consideration, particularly related to project management, is that in larger organisation, cross functional teams tend to work on 'configuration baselines' for example, v1.0 of the design, v2.0 etc If that design was implemented as a loop page, the design that you were developing against would become 'a moving target'. Though I guess if the design was implemented as a loop workspace with multiple baselined loop pages, that might work. Typically inter-operating teams needs to understand changes in order to assess any potential downstream impact, being able to change everything from everywhere on a whim could create chaos unless managed carefully. There is value, however, in always being able to 'see the latest'. I do genuinely believe there is a very positive part to play for loop within project management. Great video, as usual! I really like this 'I go to a conference, and bring you back the highlights' content!! You have a great skill of 'making it real' for your viewers. Thank you.
What a fabulous video! It will make it so much easier for me to explain to my team how we can leverage Loops to keep track of tasks, project details, and meeting notes all in the same place! Keep up the amazing work!
Is there any way to add outlook e-mail to Loop as we can do with One Note? This is the feature that prevent me to try Loop... Did someone found a nice workaround?
Question for @Jonathan because in the introduction of this video he does say that one can bring all the data, belonging to the project in other apps (like Email, OneNote) together in Loop but in the video it is only shown how meeting notes are connected to the project in Loop (great option, by the way). So yes, Jonathan please elaborate a little on this?
This is so fascinating. Microsoft really have not done a great job of actually explaining these things to the public. This is not quite ready for total implementation, but I think it will be brilliant if they can trim the fat off everything that currently has doubled functionality. It seems like Loop at the moment is an ad hoc solution to unifying the old Planner/new Planner/To Do/Outlook/Teams/Whiteboard/etc, but it doesn’t seem like anything was designed with Loop in mind originally. Thus the competing and redundant features.
I have a totally different view but when I click plus or add workspace nothing happened - what a bad first experience with Loop. EDIT - OK, I now tried another way and there was an error that my administrator has blocked the access to workspaces. I will contact the IT department.
Please can you do a video on permissions in MS Loop. Particularly for sharing entire Workspaces (not individual pages which is of no use to us) and which no one seems to cover. We've worked on a big MS Loop project at work but our manager can't add the SharePoint permission groups she usually does within SharePoint so we are not allowed to go live with it. I understand MS Loop sits under SharePoint embedded, but no one seems to understand what this is or how to change access permissions.
How can I get loop to organize notes and tasks for recurring meetings in a manageable way? I would really like to see all pending tasks from all meetings in a series in one view.
You need to add the agenda through loop initially to the series. Then once you log into the individual occurences it will use the same name and automatically append the date. This is very important for recurring meetings
@@KimberlyHornby Thanks. I was referring to the assigned tasks of every occurrence in the series showing up in a single pane of glass so we can see what is completed and what is pending for the series as a whole.
Loop feels like a good start. The mobile app is extra limited (but even newer). Keeping an eye on it. Especially making my own meeting templates to chose when scheduling a meeting (agenda/minutes).
Jonathan, sorry but this question has to do with a video you posted about two years ago. I followed your instructions on how to perform a backup from my laptop to an external ssd. I thought everything had gone well until I opened the file on the external ssd. It had formatted the transferred data into many folders and in a zip file format. This has made it difficult to locate the information that I want to open. What did I do wrong and how do I correct it. Thanks
I love Notion and can't wait to switch to Loop/Planner for work. The big hole preventing that is the ability to see a filterable view of ALL tasks for all assignees across all my Projects, Plans, or Loops. Have you seen any roadmaps that indicate this might be coming?
@@maccomplex I don't think I'd be able to filter based on "the other" assignee. So, no. Also, it's a bit of a hacky solution to something that should be much easier.
I want to be excited for this, but Microsoft is too all over the place. It looks like Microsoft don't have a coherent product vision for how their pletora of apps should integrate and where one ends and the other begins. For me as a user there is too much overlap. Too many different places to check things and do things and manage things, all with a slightly different featureset that is doesn't integrate to the level I need it or want. It's either that OR They have a coherent product vision, but fail to delivier OR They are now making the moves to do so. OR They are very unwilling to communicate that vision and how they want to get there. Loops is promising in concept, but it's awfull that a Plan that is connected to Loops, can't be connected to Planner Premium or to The Planner in Teams.

Yes! I'd love to know what you doing to "make it work" . For me, I've moved my team from network drives to Sharepoint , and am now trying to use Teams channels to consolidate communication on projects (vs 100s of random email threads). I also want a way to assign and monitor tasks on projects (dozens of small projects over the course of the year, not a few larger projects) Any thoughts that work for you would be appreciated

How do you handle meeting notes for recurring meetings?
Recurring meetings appear under "meeting notes". Each occurrence create a new loop. The loops will cascade under your meeting title in the "meeting notes" section. GL.
Microsoft could just enhance Onenote to do this and more? Why do we meet yet another app to confuse everyone

They also saw Notion impinging on their market share and decided to 'nip that one in the bud'! Poor Notion...

could they add also translation function inside there ?

Hello, you show the link with the normal MS Planner. Can Loop also be linked with the new Premium Planner?
@@michaelfreitter9803 As far as I am aware, the feature to “Copy link to Plan” isn’t yet available in the new Planner Premium.
Love this ❤
Damm man the Loop wjole workspace tip im teams was craaaazy useful!!!!

You can still reply within the comments of the video you are referring to, comments on videos years since past still appear within his comments feed.

could you do that by having youself as an assignee across all those plans so you can view them in to do?
@@maccomplex I don't think I'd be able to filter based on "the other" assignee. So, no. Also, it's a bit of a hacky solution to something that should be much easier.
I use planner for work and the website planner does not have a search bar, but the planner in teams has a search bar. I have not tested with loop
I think Microsoft has Microsoft Project in mind for that capability.
Why make mail for that loop if you can share it with Mickey? Or loop doesn't support sharing?
Yes, that’s true. You can share the whole workspace or a page with Mickey - or just a small part of it, the loop component.
Very interesting 👍

So much similar to Craft Notes app. Hey MS…copied a lot from them, didn’t they? 😜
