Hello daibt ,
There isn't a baseline feature out of the box for P4W currently but you could build a snapshot process yourself. An example can be seen below that a I wrote a few years ago:

There are a few ways in which you could build a similar process in the Power Platform.

Thanks for your reply
The post helps us to take snapshot of a project
My Solutions:
- We can do take snapshot as same as the post in blog
- Synch this snapshot into Project Online, and update into one of baseline (we have 10 baseline) (we can do by Power App)
- Users (normally, they are project controler or project manager) can do baselinse analytics in Project Online
I will ask my technicians try do do in step 2, make sure that we can synch the snapshot into a baseline. How do you think about my solutions?

This may sound like a dumb question, but if Project for the Web cannot handle your baseline needs, and you have to export the data to Project Online where it will be analyzed, why don't you just use Project Online instead of Project for the Web? Your process seems so convoluted as to be mind boggling!
