    Hello Paul_Mather thanks for your reply I just tested it and it works that it opens the file after I enter my credentials but the embedded browser still generates error on the Java script https://youtu.be/FEFqP8X-bAM

      Hello fshahin90 ,

      The issue is a platform issue and not specific to Project, Project Server is a feature on top of the SharePoint platform. I would recommend posting this on the SharePoint Tech Community with the Excel example - if you solve that, I'm sure the Project Desktop issue will also be resolved too. SharePoint Tech Community is here: SharePoint | Microsoft Community Hub
