No, the ability to control notification emails for task assignments in Microsoft Planner is managed by the assignee, not the person assigning the task.
📌 Key Points:
- When a task is assigned, notification emails are sent based on the recipient’s personal settings.
- The assigning user cannot enable or disable these notifications.
- There is no tenant-wide setting to manage this behavior across all users.
🔧 How Assignees Can Manage Their Notification Settings:
- Go to Microsoft Planner
- Click the gear icon in the upper-right corner
- Select “Notifications”
- Toggle off “Send an email when a task is assigned to me”
- Click Save
