"Tasks by Planner" and "Microsoft Project for the Web"

Thank you for your time,

 

1) I can use a Webpart on SharePoint to display information from "Tasks by Planner", but I cannot do the same for "Planner". Is "Tasks by Planner" the new Planner?

 

2) I can link "Planner" to MS Project for the Web, but I cannot do the same with "Tasks by Planner". Is there a way to link "Tasks by Planner" to MS Project for the Web. I need a Gantt Chart.

 

I need to have a Gantt chart from MS Project for the Web, and I need to display the tasks using the WebPart on the SharePoint site. How can I do that? So far, it seems to me like it's one or the other--which would be a big limitation.

 

Thank you very much

Leonel

  • Leonel GUZMAN The integration of Planner and Project for the Web (default environment only) can be rather confusing.  Here is a lengthy post that may help The new Microsoft Planner: A unified experience bringing together to-dos, tasks, plans and projects - Page 8 - Microsoft Community Hub


    Hopefully this will help alleviate some of the confusion.

    • Currently the Tasks by Planner and To Do app, creates a Planner project without the Timeline functionality.
    • Currently the Project app creates a Project for the Web project in the default environment, or you can link it to a project in a named environment.
    • Currently in the Planner app, you can convert a copy of a Planner to a Project for the Web project in the default environment.
    • At this time I do not believe it's possible to embed a Project for the Web project in a SharePoint site.
