Querying Custom Text Fields from MS Project Online
I am trying to call custom text fields (Text1, Text2, ...., Text30) from MS Project Online using OData feed i PowerBI. When I use {pwaUrl}/_api/ProjectData I am able to get the default fields on top of the custom enterprise fields but not the custom Text fields. Is there any way to query these custom text fields?
How do I manage my Microsoft Project? (notifications, deletion, and more)...
I finally got a license for Microsoft Project (instead of silly Planner which I cannot use for Agile Framework). However, I am still having some basic functionality issues with Microsoft Project Online. I am honestly trained on 2010 version of Microsoft Project, so a lot of these feature changes 1) How do I control notifications for Microsoft Project Online? First, I discovered there is these new notifications feature for Microsoft Project that sends out an email every time a even a sub-subtask (aka an action instance) is assigned. I do not want my coworker or the entire department to receive emails every time I edit a plan. (I mean 1 email is ok) but with how I work it can lead to like 60 emails.... So naturally I binged it which gave me this result.... Turn off sending out notification to all members Microsoft Project - Microsoft Community 1. From the planning board, select the 3 dots (. . .) to the right of the plan's name. 2. Choose Plan Settings from the menu There are no settings under any of the 3 dots menu. So where are the notification settings for an entire project? 2) What is needed to access actual Microsoft Project Online? Normally I click on a project and simply edit it, but in the desperate search for the actual settings for a Microsoft Project.... I discovered today that I have a weird error. Something about permission to a SharePoint site. It did not give me this error before. I suspect that I might have to make my own PWA site. Can someone explain to me what this error is about and why the day before I could access Microsoft Project Online but now cannot? 3) How to delete a project? So, I was able to find a tutorial on this one, but I wanted to ask if there was a better way. Deleting a project from 'Project for the Web' - Microsoft Community 4) How to control users that are part Microsoft Project Online? Because how many documents talk about need to be owner to control emails... I tried to make own group in hopes that will give me better control over notifications. But this led to a discovery that I am in like 15 different groups all with the exact same name as my section and members. So What settings in Groups are for a Microsoft Project Plan? Just an old fashion Project Plan user trying to understand how to use this confusing new Project version.

I have two separate projects that were created in PFTW. One of them I can still make and promote subtasks (not grayed out) and the other project I was able to make and promote subtasks but now both options are grayed out. I have tried to do this from Project Accelerator, PFTW, and Planner and cannot do it from any of the apps. This is the image from the Planner access for the WBS without the functionality accessible: Here's a screenshot from the WBS where I can access: I am not the only one with this issue and we seem to have the correct licensing as we can access the functionality in some projects but have lost it in others. Any assistance troubleshooting and resolving this is greatly appreciPFTW: Make or Promote Subtask Sometimes Grayed Out and Sometimes Not: Please Help!

Pdp relative issues
Hi Community, I am configuring a new PWA and currently trying to add a new PDP, but I'm encountering a couple of issues that I've also noticed in other tenants. Under PWA Settings > PDPs & Workflows > PDP, when I click New, I only see three options: Link, Edit New Menu, and Add Template. I decided to edit one of the existing pages. However, even after adding a few custom fields to the page, once I click Apply and then Stop Editing, the page resets. Additionally, when I try to add a new web part, I don't find the Project web part category among the available options. Any suggestions?

I have a project in project online. I assigned a task to a team member . Whenever i assigned a task , he can able to access the project. but he couldn't able to access the project site is says Access denied or request for approval. When admin or project owner opens the project site>site settings under >invitations, i can able to see who requested the site access. i don't want to manually approve. System has to assign him as a team member role to the project site & he should able to access the modules. I am using out of box permissions.
