I can add a Atlassian Trello tab to group chat.

Answer 1

By default

Owners and team members can add tabs to a channel, private chat, and group chat to help integrate their cloud services. Tabs can be added to help users easily access and manage the data they need or interact with the most.

For some reason some of the apps are not appearing in Group chat.

But I have carefully checked the channels and private chat. I can able to add the planner app. For Group chat certainly some updates /settings are missing.

However the solution for your question is. ( Bit of hacky way) But it can work

1. Create a Group Chat with your team members
2. Hit the + tab and Select website. Please see screen shot below

3. Enter your Tab name as "MS Planner" and in the URL https://tasks.office.com/ add the link

4. Select the checkbox "Post to the chat about this tab" so that your other group chat members know

5. When you hit save you should be definitely seeing the Planner > Signin and start using it.

6. Here is the confirmation

Hope it helps.
