Projects not showing in PWA Project Center

Hi again, 

 

I'm on a Project Professional 3 license with (what looks like) admin access on the PWA sharepoint site, yet none of my projects are showing in the Project Center. 

 

I can see all the projects I've created on the 'desktop' app and saved to PWA, but when I click on "Go to Project Online", no projects are showing.

    The projects that you created already, as shown on the Project Home page in your first screenshot, were created using the new Project for the Web application. This application is TOTALLY DIFFERENT from the Project Online application. To use Project Online to its full extent, your Project Plan 3 license will allow you to download and install the Microsoft Project Professional desktop application, which you will then need to connect to your Project Online system. Any projects that you created with Microsoft Project Professional and then publish to Project Online will show up in the Project Center page in Project Web App (PWA). By the way, PWA is the web-based user interface to Project Online.

    Hope this helps.

      Hi Dale,

      I'm pretty sure I've already connected the Project Professional desktop app with the Project Online site, and have been publishing my projects to the PWA when saving them but they still won't show up - am I missing another step?

        Hello BlissL ,

        How many PWA instances do you have? From your first screenshot you can see you have all PWA Projects as you can see the source is "PWA Project". If you click a project from the Recent list from Project Home, does that load the project in PWA and you can fully access it? If so, from that PWA session, click "Projects" from the left nav - does that show you the projects then?

        Paul
