    Hey Amit,

    Thanks for the response. I have now realised that the tables and fields pulled in by the PowerBI template for Project on the Web are not complete. Pulling in the full dataset allows me to use a parent task field which effectively gives me a workaround for this. 

     

    Thanks again

Hi John, I've been struggling with this for the last days and I would be so glad to know how you managed to use the partent task (which is in my dataset) to visualize the tasks acc. to their hirarchy. I tried to make a hirarchy direktly in the data model, but the problem is that sub-subtasks are not allocated correctly.  I.e. a task is only allocated to its direct partent, not its parent parent. 
Thanks a lot for any hint. Regards Melanie

Hi Melanie:

 

I wish I could help you. I'm really no expert. I have not actually touched this since April. My recommendation is to log a ticket with Microsoft - they were super helpful with me and pretty responsive.
