Looks like no!
This topic comes up a lot, and I had a hunch that it wasn’t as simple as you’d expect, but it turns out you really can’t:
"body": {
"error": {
"code": "0x80040265",

"@Microsoft.PowerApps.CDS.InnerError.Message": "We’re sorry. You cannot directly do 'Update' operation to 'msdyn_projecttask'. Try editing it through the Resource editing UI via Project."
}
}
}I tested this out using a basic “update a row” with the Dataverse connector to modify a single task and this was the error it gave.
If you’re thinking “why don’t you use the Planner connector?!”, it’s because the Planner connector is specific to standard-tier Planner. They are very much not the same thing and don’t live in the same place, despite being called the same thing.
I’m not sure what the plan for this is, perhaps Microsoft will eventually come out with a Planner premium-specific connector?
In the meantime, you can still use Dataverse connectors to trigger other behavior on premium Planner data, like send notifications to Outlook or Teams, just not update the task.
If anyone finds some info to the contrary, let me know!
