Well, I stand corrected! I never use the SharePoint Tasks List feature in Project Online, so I was totally unaware that you can apply a Gantt Chart view to the task list. Sorry about that! 😞
So, I want to the Project Site for one of my enterprise projects, displayed the Tasks page, and then displayed the Gantt Chart view. When I clicked the "Modify this view" item, I was hoping to see that the Critical column was avaialable for inclusion in this view. Alas, the Critical field IS NOT available. So, I think you are out of luck. Sorry about that!
Out of curiosity, what exactly are you trying to do with the Tasks page in the SharePoint site? If you could explain further, maybe there is another way to meet your needs. Please let us know and we will try to help you.

Project Site for each projects hosts Tasks, Risk, and Issues list. Our PMs would like to see everything in one place. Gantt view for critical task would be useful for us.
Looking for suggestion on how to include Critical field on the existing Gantt Chart. I would like to keep the same view. Any suggestion as to how we could build on top of Gantt view?

- Thanks Dale. PMs are using that functionality on PWA but we intend to provide that on Project Site as well. I am hoping someone in this Microsoft project forum has some information on it. Appreciate all your help.

I am not aware of any way to customized the Gantt Chart view in the Project Site to show the Critical Path. Out of curiosity, why aren't your PMs using the Project Center page in PWA instead? If you did this, your PMs could click the name of a project and then apply the Tasks Tracking view that displays red Gantt bars for tasks on the Critical Path. Just a thought. Hope this helps.
