An error occurred while saving the comment Can you send us more information on the errors that you are hitting? The easiest way to do this is when you are in Project and hit an error, click the Feedback button towards the bottom right. Please include your email address so we can get back to you.
Thanks

An error occurred while saving the comment I assume you are referencing Guest Users? (So if you work at Contoso, people who don't work at Contoso but are guest users on the Contoso tenant). Project for the web doesn't support Guest Users yet. Here's the larger UserVoice item on this https://microsoftproject.uservoice.com/forums/914203-project-for-the-web/suggestions/38925637-guest-access-to-projects

An error occurred while saving the comment South Korea and France will have access to Project for the web on April 6th. If you are the Office 365 admin for a tenant in one of these geographies you should see a post in message center about this. You will need to opt-in to Project for the web.
Roadmap recently became available in these regions. Again the Office 365 admin will have to opt-in. This article has more information https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/project-for-the-web/turn-project-for-the-web-off

Hi everyone – thanks for the feedback so far. In regards to Planner & Project for the web, we are definitely listening to these scenarios and thinking about how to improve them!
Would helping import from Planner to Project be helpful in this case, and enabling teams to work in Project?
I read a lot of comments on making sure we can leverage full Planner capabilities in Project, team members being able to see and complete their task, and not wanting to “re-write” and “move” tasks over. Are these the most important scenarios for us when thinking about this area?
An error occurred while saving the comment Hey all - just want to reiterate that this is the "Project for the web" forum within UserVoice. If you're interested in something with Project Online (PWA) or Project Online Desktop Client, please make sure you share those suggestions/comments there with regards to a Planner integration!

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for posting this. The thinking is there would be an option to go into planning mode and while in planning mode your changes aren't automatically visible to everyone. You would get to choose when to make that edition of the project visible to everyone.
Do you think this makes sense? Would love to get more feedback.
Thanks!

Hi all -
You can now add the PWA project summary task in the Roadmap UI and its dates will stay updated. Note that this works with only new PWA connections to Roadmap.
Thanks for the feedback!

An error occurred while saving the comment Sai, we are still in development like the status states.
Kris - Can you create a separate Uservoice entry on this? Or add to a current entry with some details? A similar existing UserVoice thread is on showing non-linked phases in Roadmap. This will help us a ton!
Thanks ~J

Hi everyone!
We listened and agreed with your feedback on Project Home to be more compatible with the right PWA sites, so we committed and released a capability where Project Home users can now change the default PWA site to their preferred PWA site. This allows Project Home users to control the creation location of new Project Online projects, and to navigate more easily to desired PWA sites from Project Home.
You can learn more about how to use this feature here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Project-Blog/Change-Your-Default-PWA-Site-for-Project-Home/ba-p/353439
This feature will rollout to tenants gradually over a period of time. Please let us know if there are any questions or comments, we’re actively listening to you all.

Hi Julian!
I hear you on that – I wanted to make sure you knew we had the Sprint Start and Sprint Finish dates in there. We’ve heard similar feedback before, so now that your request is more clear, we’ll listen to more feedback and see what the best route is.
There’s a scenario of a hybrid classical method alongside the scrum ones, which is why we want to make sure we can still support that.
Thanks for the feedback – we’ll keep listening for this one. I’ve also marked this back to “Under Review” so more users can vote and comment on this.

We only have this functionality in Project Online Desktop Client aka the Subscription mode. If that's what you have, you may not be on the latest channel.
Hope this is helpful!

Hi -
Have you tried using the Power BI Content Pack we’ve created? It comes with awesome reports that show summaries of all of your projects, and more! It has portfolio level reports, project level reports, and even resource reports.
Here’s a link to learn more –

Hi all!
We hear you – thanks for the feedback. Please keep sharing your scenarios and your asks here. We want to make sure we have a great experience between Project and Planner.

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Ian (and others!)
This is interesting feedback - we view the model between Project and Planner a bit differently - which is why we link a task to an entire Planner plan. We haven't seen a ton of scenarios for 1:1 tasks in Planner and Project, since we see that a large task may encompass an entire Planner plan.
We'd love to hear your feedback on how the current model can be improved on with more integration. Currently, we have a link, but what else would make this feature more valuable to you?

An error occurred while saving the comment Hello-
Have you looked into the new Project Online Power BI Content Pack? It includes report pages on Issues/Risks at a portfolio and project level. You can download that and take out the pages and charts you don't need. It's available both through Power BI and on GitHub. Let us know if that is what you're asking for, and we can update the status of this. If not, let us know what you would have expected/more details on what this ask is in regards to.

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Joe,
Have you tried doing the following?
Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
The Project Team
This is possible. To do this click the item in the roadmap to bring up the details pane. In the pane under Connections you should see the name of the task the roadmap item is linked to. If you click that, we'll take you to the project and task (if using Project for the web) the item is linked to.
Thanks,
H
