Guest access to Project Online and Project Client

Iron Contributor

Hi,

 

we've successfully tried out the new external access for PWA as per Microsoft documentation:

 

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/using-project-online-with-external-users-f305a365-3d81-48bc...

 

However, I can't find anything about guest licences for Microsoft Project Client. I've assigned licences to the guest users for Project Online and Project Client, in one user there have been no problems, he can connect to PWA using MS Project, MS Project activated fine, all using a guest account (from another tenant). The other user however, can access PWA in the browser fine but cannot activate MS Project.

I can't see any difference between the accounts, I followed the same steps with both, one works with Project client, one doesn't.

 

Any ideas?

Strange,
Both accounts should work in the same way...is the problematic user properly setup in terms of permissions in Project Online?
