| Maximum buckets in a plan | 200 |
| Maximum plans owned by a group or user | 400 |

Note
- An active task is a task that isn't completed.
- Delta sync lets users passively receive updates in real-time while the app is open. Users beyond the delta-sync limits won't see updates in real-time.
- Most Planner plans are owned by a group. Plans created by other apps, and shown in Planner, may be owned by a user.
- A context is the association between a plan and a host container like a Teams tab. The limit on contexts is a limit on how many associations a plan can have.
