Task dependencies MS Project in Power BI

 

In Microsoft Project it is possible to make a task dependent to another task (Predecessors and Successors). I am trying to find a way to show these dependencies in Power BI, but it seems that I can't find these dependencies in the data I extract from Microsoft Project Online. 

The current way I extract the data is via OdataFeed via the API of our organizational MS Project environment

Is anyone familiar with this issue and knows how to help me?

This may be a bit late for Gerhard, and there may be a simpler way, but I have come across one way of accessing this information:
The usual ODATA connection is via https://[your domain here].sharepoint.com/sites/[pwa name]/_api/projectdata.

If you create new connection with https://[your domain here].sharepoint.com/sites/[pwa name]/_api/projectserver, you get a list of really interesting stuff. Navigate to Projects, then expand TaskLinks. 

This gives you task GUIDs for predecessors and successors, dependency type, plus lag duration and type if you need it.
