Creating a group in a list is ideal for smaller projects that don’t require using the Planner app or a more comprehensive project planner.

The To Do lists and groups features give us the ability to organize tasks into lists and share and manage those with colleagues. You can select this icon to see who has access to the list. You’ll notice the share icon in the upper right corner of your list has been replaced with a people icon that shows how many members share the list.

Once they have joined the list, they can create items, mark items completed, and be assigned to tasks. This will prompt them to sign in to officially join the list. Once you have shared the list with your co-workers, they will receive an email notification to join the list. This means you can adjust membership, limit access to prevent new people from joining the list, or completely stop sharing the list. The share dialog also allows you to manage access to this list. Once you’ve created the link, you’ll be able to invite others to your list via email or you can copy the link to send directly to others. This icon will prompt you to create an invitation link. In the upper right-hand corner of the list, you will see a share icon. I do this by giving others access in To Do.

Once you create a group, you will be prompted to give it a title. Once in To Do you will see the option to create a new list at the bottom of the left-hand navigation panel and next to that you will also see an icon to create a group You can open To Do from Outlook Online or the app launcher found on the home page.
