Hello Lalith_Damera ,
- Task Notes have never been in the reporting API, you can get some of the Note data in the Tasks CSOM API: /_api/ProjectServer/Projects('{projectGuid}')/Tasks

- Reporting on Predecessors and successors- this will help: https://pwmather.wordpress.com/2018/10/13/projectonline-reporting-on-task-predecessors-and-successors-o365-msproject-ppm-pmot-excel-powerbi-odata/

Thanks for the inputs Paul. With respect to the Notes, Predecessors and successor, i agree that there is no direct way to get these fields using the direct odata API query.

Hello Lalith_Damera ,
You can assignment data from the assignments endpoint, for example: _api/ProjectData/Assignments
