I do not think you can. You need to return to your Office 365 “landing page” / account portal in the Browser and launch each app from there. Or, if you are using the Teams app you can embed you plans there.

This Brave issue is regarding launching the Planner web app from the O365 landing page / portal.

Okay, created a plan. and editing… no error so far (sheilds on)

Hmmm… I always get the server loop request error. Shields up or down. Clear cache or not. Nothing I do makes it work in Brave but it works faultlessly in Chrome or FF.

It won’t stop me using Brave though! I am loving it for all the places it does work (ie everywhere else other than the Office 365 portal) :wink:

Maybe others will file reports and some clue will emerge. I notice others already have filed reports around this but the threads expired and closed.

Thanks,
Murray

Does sheilds=off help or not?

No difference whether shields are up or down. Later today I will test the Windows version of Brave to see whether it is just the Mac version. Grasping at straws but might shed some light.

@murrahl,
Can you try logging in using a private browsing sessions? Additionally, it may be related to this issue:

Ok.

  1. Windows version in a normal window works fine, shields are up. Win 7 Pro, latest Brave version.
  2. Yes. incognito window on Mac version also works fine (and shields are up). Normal window does not.

Good to go by the look of it.
