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?

Hello - yes, MS Project does support task dependencies.  You can link any two tasks in a project to show their relationship (also called a task dependency). Dependencies drive the project schedule — once you link the tasks, every change you make to the predecessor affects the successor, which affects the next one, and so on.
