Custom Column from MS Project in Power BI Desktop

Hello all, 

 

I know that this issue was already mentioned there, but I am still looking for a solution. I´m creating a dashboard in Power BI Desktop. It´s going to be a Project Portfolio. I received data from Project for the Web and import them to Power BI via Dataverse. I can´t find there custom columns from Project. Is there any way how to do that? 

 

Thanks in advance 

Sarka

There is no other solution for that than use the default columns from Project. 

Microsoft approved that it is not possible to get the custom fields from Project to Power BI.

Hi @SaryT ,

 

You can use Power Query Editor to add custom columns to your data. In Power BI Desktop, select the "Transform Data" button to open Power Query Editor. From there, you can add custom columns using the "Add Column" tab.

Hi @SaryT  Could you please share the Microsoft approved related URL

Yes, we created column in Project Task table in Power Apps which is then visible in Power BI. Now we also need to see this column in Project for the Web, but we can't.
