About this tag
The project online tag covers Microsoft’s planned retirement of Project Online on September 30, 2026, with a focus on practical migration and preservation work. Recent discussions examine Project Web App (PWA) schedules, cross-project dependencies, capacity planning, workflows, reporting history, permissions, integrations, and records retention. They also stress that exporting Project Online data alone may omit documents, issues, risks, deliverables, links, and other content stored in associated SharePoint sites. The tag includes guidance for PMOs and construction organizations choosing replacement tools, testing workflows, and distinguishing the Project Online deadline from the earlier move of Project for the web and related apps into Microsoft Planner.
