Delete archived projects in Project Online

Hi,
Does anyone know why the Delete archived projects is available in Delete Enterprise Objects in Project Online? As far as I know the backup functionality that exist in Project Server on premise is not present in Project Online, or have I missed something?
Regards
Johan

Hi, I think MS forgot to update the UI.

  • Workflow in Project server 2013 online not going particular stage after Approval

    Hi All,
    i have created workflow using sharepoint designer 2013 for project server 2013 online. and i have also set the approver after the first stage. when i create a project using this workflow, project is created successfully and the approval task also go for
    a approval to specific user. and i have set the property that after approval it has to go on specific stage. but the problem is when user approve the task it shows approved but my stage in workflow is remain same. it is not going to any stage. 
    i don't know why this type of problem is occur. 
    FYI, i have created same workflow for Project server 2013 on premise(Which is installed in my server) and
    it is working fine but when i want to deploy this workflow in
    project server 2013 online its giving error.
    so please help me to solve this type of issue.
    Thanks

    I am also experiencing issues with this.  After the approval task is completed, the Workflow gets cancelled with the following message
    RequestorId: 60d96368-4cb4-b059-8086-604972a92e60. Details: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine.SubroutineChild.Execute(CodeActivityContext context)
    at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager
    bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)
    All other desired workflow actions work as expected.  Emails are sent, project is moved from stage to stage, however as soon as the workflow approval task is completed, either Approved or Rejected, the Internal Status is changed to Canceled and the
    workflow fails.
    What is interesting is when the Approval task is completed, the approver will receive an email notification that the task was CANCELLED or DELETED....
    not COMPLETED, which is what would be expected.
    Has anyone seen this - any potential resolution?

  • How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future

    Help would be greatly appreciated
    How do I properly archive or save projects so they could be used in the future, but yet delete or trash the events folder they came from, to clear hard drive space

    Hi to all of you Seniors and one junior [i.e. the the OP who started this thread]. I feel that this thread is a very vital subject relevant to practical and economical 'creativity oriented videography'!!!
    As a newcomer I always have tried to have a grasp over this matter and the insecurity of 'incomplete knowledge' has been a constant mental niggle.
    May I tell you that I have been struggling to 'hear' what I am now 'hearing' in this present discussion for over the past 10 months and have not been able to!!!
    I shout out a million cheers to all the participants, OP included, involved in this thread.
    May I request that this discussion be not allowed to die down but be used as a guidepost for all folks, especially those whose primary work is videography? By the time the this thread comes to an end, every reader should be able to make an 'informed and learned' decision of how to economically and safely preserve his work.
    Salty's observation regarding opting for SD looks attractive just because of the lack of a suitable [read economical] means of having your work in HD...but, if in the coming days, were there to be any pathbreaking discoveries in terms of data storage, and hugh capacity drives are available at 'throwaway prices' would we not for the rest of our lives regret having done our works in SD?
    Appleman's foray into this common problem, as to how it should be tackled, needs to be greatly lauded. Tom Wolsky's precise observations which obviate the need to check out and painfully realize some of the errors in Appleman's hypothesis neccessitate that the laurels, as usual, be handed over to him.
    Now having said what I felt after reading through this thread, I would like these clarifications:
    1] what is meant by having a backup of 'currentevent.fcpevent.'? How do we go about it. Where are we to store it? After doing this 'backup' can the 'currentevent.fcpevent.' file be deleted from the event folder?
    2] Some word of enlightenment regarding the meaning and usage of 'event metadata '...i.e. say after 3 years of having the 'projected related event data' in cold storage, were one have the need to put his project back again on to the timeline for further editing...what are the exact steps which one should take?

  • How to Archive Encore CS4 Project?

    How to Archive Encore CS4 Project?
    The goal is to archive the minimum number of files necessary to restore an Encore project. I would let Encore regenerate configuration and transcode files. The Encore project would use dynamic links to Premiere sequences. I would not want to delete anything which would prevent me from immediately building a DVD once the assets were transcoded.
    I believe you can delete the
    1) "cache" folder
    2) "Sources\Transcodes" folder
    Do not delete the
    1) "Sources\Menus" folder since it has the menus
    The "Sources" folder contains numerous "xxx_ses" folders. It is unclear if deleting them causes problems.
    It is unclear what the "Sources\Video" folder does.
    Thanks in advance.

    Encore has no archiving features, so you would be taking some risk here as manually archiving Encore projects is not a supported workflow.
    If you're OK with taking on the risk, then yes, you can delete contents of the cache and Sources\Transcodes folders. You can also delete all the session folders, as long as you are not re-using assets in the project. If you are not using the menus in the project, you can also delete the contents of Sources\Menus.
    I believe that Sources\Video contains rendered slideshow transitions, but I could be mistaken. What do you have in it?

  • How Can I Safely Delete a RoboHelp 9 Project?

    I am learning/evaluating RoboHelp 9 using IconLogic's "Essentials of Adobe RoboHelp 9 HTML".  This book  has excellent step-by-step lessons and contains student data files to make it easier to learn.  The student lessons were downloaded and unzipped into a folder called "RoboHelp9Data".  Beneath this folder is a folder named "RoboHelpProjects".  (Note there is no space in the folder name.)  At some point, I inadvertently created a folder called "RoboHelp Projects".  (Note the space in the folder name.)  As lessons progressed, I learned (1.) it is best not to have pathnames with spaces as this can cause problems on some operating systems; and (2.) you should not delete any RoboHelp files via Windows Explorer.  Rather, you should always delete them from within the RoboHelp application itself.  (Let it be duly noted that the admonition in Item 2 came with no instructions on how to do that which it admonished!)
    Because I now have two folders with similar names ("RoboHelpProjects" and RoboHelp Projects"), it is causing me problems.  At first glance, it seems the simplest solution would be to remove and recreate the entire root folder, "RoboHelp9Data " via Windows Explorer.  (I don't care about losing project data---I actually want to start over.)  The thing that stops me from doing this is the admonition in item 2 above.  So would RoboHelp still be unhappy if I were to remove the entire root project folder and everything it it (via Windows Explorer).  It seems logical to me that if all traces of all project files were to disappear (including the files that contain references to the project), RoboHelp would not have anything to complain about!  (I guess that all depends upon where and how the RoboHelp application stores data about each project, and sadly, I am ignorant of that knowledge.)
    As I am unwilling to stand accused by the RoboHelp application of high crimes against project data, I decided to play it safe and delete my projects from within RoboHelp and then recreate them.  It sounds reasonable, does it not?  One would think that finding out how to delete a project from within RoboHelp would be simple enough.  However, one would be wrong.
    I have tried the obvious:  (1.) Searched the index and TOC of my book for info on deleting a project---no help there; (2.)  Looked for a "delete project" option in the Manager Pod "File" menu (also tried the right-click options)---no help there; and (3.) I searched the web and Adobe forums for "Delete RoboHelp 9 Project" with no success.  I did find an article about removing unused project files (Tools > Reports > Unused Files), but nothing about deleting an entire project.
    As a new RoboHelp user, what I need are some simple step-by-step instructions on how to safely delete a RoboHelp 9 project from within RoboHelp.  This seems like it should be a short, simple, straightforward answer that is easy to find on the Web.  What am I missing?

    Kevin is suggesting that you store the projects you create while working through his book in a folder called RoboHelpProjects. It is not where you have to store every project you ever create.That is for the purposes of his book.
    RoboHelp initially defaults to My RoboHelp Projects but it's up to you whether you do. Generally on the forums we advise against that as  it is part of your profile and can result in excessively long path names in a few cases. Generally where authors create file names that are so long they almost serve as the content.
    Projects always have a root folder, call them Project 1 and Project 2 for this purpose. You can have those folders directly off your C drive (or other local partition) or within in a parent folder as above.
    Now to what you can and cannot do. You can delete a whole project by selecting Project 1 or Project 2 in Windows Explorer. Obviously if you delete the parent folder you will delete all your projects within.
    What you must not do is delete individual files within a project using Windows Explorer, for that you use RoboHelp's Project Manager. The exception is if you go to Tools > Reports there is a report Unused Files. Files listed there will have to be deleted using Windows Explorer for the very good reason they do not appear in Project Manager and, therefore, cannot be deleted that way.
    If you think about it, it is similar to Word. There is no option to delete a document there other than using File > Open and right clicking. Not very intuitive.

  • Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter can be set and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)

    My main question is: Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter for that view can be set, and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)? and can I have a filter set to filter on person logged on to...
    In previous versions of Project Server, when CREATING a PWA view, we were able to apply/ define a filter for that view.  Does not seem like it is the case in Project Server 2013 Online.  And if I remember, we could also use the URL Guid_view_id. 
    Please confirm; and / or tell me how-to.
    What I was hoping to do is the following... Given that our standard that we have adopted for reporting time is 'My Timesheets' (fyi, Single Mode Entry=ON), we have some resources who have others who do it on their behalf via 'My Tasks' (ie., accomplished
    by using the 'Assignment Owner' field, accordingly).  Therefore, when entering time on someone else's behalf within 'My Tasks', we like to present the user that is logged in only the tasks that they are are assigned to update on others' behlaf.
    I know that there is another more elegant approach to doing this which may be to use the Delegation feature. But since we are trying to stick to Sharepoint Security mode for now, this is not an option for the time being.
    Any help appreciated would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Spiro,
    1- You still can define in Project Online a filter in the view settings, it is located just above the category setting. Here is a screenshot of the summary project center view:
    2- The view GUID is not anymore in the URL, since the URL triggers an action only on the webpart and not on the whole page. I agree this is annoying since it was great to send a URL with a specific view.
    3- Concerning the access to my timesheet versus my task, I'm not sure to get a full understanding but on a general way, it is much more easy to deal with those situation using categories which you cannot do with the SP permission mode.
    Hope this helps,

  • Need to create a TASKS page with a filter default in PWA Project Server 2013 (Online)

    Never done this so, I am wondering How to go about or what I would need to create a simple PWA page like "Tasks" in Project Server 2013 online where it default to a filter that is set to not equal to the user that is logged on?
    \Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

    Hi Spiro,
    The "my tasks" page or "my timesheet" are automatically filtered on the user currently connected. Unless you are using workarounds such as status manager or delegation, I see no way to bypass this.
    Hope this helps,

  • Development tools for Project/Server Project Online in O365

    Hello,
    My company is seeking to unify it's IT PMO using Project Server or Project Online. I notivced that the Project Server certs have been deprecated and the pages ar eno longer available. Does that mean Project Online is the replacement/continuiation of that
    product?
    If so, what are some development tools you would advise for me to have to be able to develop/modiify and administrate Project Online in O365?
    Thanks,
    T

    Hi,
    Indeed Project Server and Project Online are 2 different products. You have to notice that Microsoft regularly releases new version of Project Server (2003, 2007, 2010, 2013). Some old version feature might be deprecated indeed. Moreover Project Online is
    a new version on the Microsoft solution that doesn't require to have on-premise infra.
    Note also that Project Onlie is meant to be used quite out-of-the-box whereas Project Server on premise allows you doing custom development.
    Below a link for Project Online:

  • How to delete Analysis and Analysis Project in SDA ?

    Hii
    Please tell me how to delete Analysis and Analysis project in SDA .??

    Hi Rahul,
    in most cases the Identifying Check Item might be used.
    The rating of each Check Item will be determined by the assigned Check Steps. The rating of an Informative Check Item does not contribute to the rating of the Analysis Structure (e.g. a business process step etc.), while the rating of an Identifying Check Item does.
    The purpose of such behaviour can be explained with the usage in different Analyses.
    In the Analysis Project one will assign Check Steps to an Informative Check Item in cases where you want to get processed additional Check Steps, that might be not yet validated in that combination and/or that might cause higher Analysis runtimes.
    During the creation of an Analysis one can control to include these Informative Check Items for the current Analysis. With the results of the Informative Check Items one might refine the Analysis Project, which will be used for the next Analysis created.
    The data for workload Check Steps are coming from the workload statistics in the managed system and the values displayed are dialog steps performed in the period(month) selected.
    I hope that the information given is helpful somehow.
    Best regards,
      Andreas

  • Has anyone heard of RoboHelp HTML v10 "magically" deleting itself and all project files?

    We have an off-site contractor that swears RoboHelp HTML "magically" deleted itself and all project files. I've never heard of this and wondered if anyone else had. It sounds kinda fishy to me, but I've seen some strange things from RH, so thought I'd ask around first.
    Thanks-

    Hi all-
    No, no source control in play that I know of. It appears we have gotten few answers to questions. The problems began when it was reported that they could not copy the project files to a flash drive. I personally have never had an issue with this task. Then, it was reported that the project had gotten deleted by RH. The resolution after-the-fact is that the contractor spent 1+/- week recreating the project (60-70 topics) from the published content.
    I'm surprised that as a contractor they didn't know to come here and ask questions or find tools available to reverse engineer from the published content, but I suppose not everyone knows of the goldmine that lives here. I'd never heard of an uninstall removing project files, but I know there are a million ways it could have been configured and never say never, right?
    Thanks for the quick replies - you guys ROCK!

  • Read all projects within Project Online using web part Sharepoint

    Hello all. Can we get data of all projects from Project Online in Sharepoint Site? So far as I understand we can get data of list like this:
    SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;
    SPList issueList = web.GetList("https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/demo/Sample Project 1/Lists/Issues/AllItems.aspx");
    Do you have any some good tutorial? I am new on web part Sharepoint.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    Yes you can, I would use the ProjectData API if you are not bothered about security (accessing all projects etc.) or if you want the data returned to be accessed controlled use the ProjectServer API. Examples below:
    ODATA API (ProjectData):
    <PWA site URL>/_api/ProjectData/Projects
    JSOM REST API (ProjectServer):
    <PWA site url>/_api/ProjectServer/Projects
    Regarding guides, just search for SharePoint apps / App part / client web part. Some simple examples of using  the APIs mentioned in JavaScript on the Project sites can be seen below:

  • Aperture, why when I delete from an album it deletes it from the project folder

    Aperture, why when I delete from an album it deletes it from the project folder also.
    I thought that it was the other way round, in that the library was not the main entry.
    I have 10 project folders and 6 albums and I want to remove the albums and keep the projects "as is"
    I am unsure as to how I wound up with albums in the Aperture program.
    thanks
    Greg
    Lamont

    Never used the Trash icon either (and generally don't show the Toolbar).  But at least the Tooltip is correct:
    Now that I think on it, clicking "Trash" _should_ put the item in the Aperture Trash.  The confusion comes from the use of "Delete" -- specifically using a key with that label to execute a command that changes based on not only what kind of item is selected, but where the item is located.  So in this case (let me parenthetically add I have yet to take part in my morning caffeine ritual) "Delete" in the Tooltip does not equal "press and release the 'delete' key", but rather is used as a verb (rightly, imho).
    Not sure what a better design might be, but perhaps at least popping up a window saying, "The selected items are Images in an Album.  Would you like to remove them from the Album, or move them to the Aperture Trash (which will delete them from the Project they are in)?".
    Greg -- I suggest using the context-sensitive menu (a/k/a "right-click") to select the command you want:

  • How To Archive Encore CS3 projects

    Question: How To Archive Encore CS3 projects
    I edit my AVI files in Premiere Pro CS3 and then author in Encore CS3. When the project is finished, I want to archive both the Premiere and Encore projects. If I need to restore a project, I would recapure the AVI files from the mini DV tapes using Premiere.
    What Encore and Premiere files and folders do I have to save so I can later restore the project?
    What files and folders can I erase?
    Thank you for the feedback.

    Adobe Premiere Pro is very similar to Final Cut Pro (non-X). It has a number of pros, including being bundled with the Creative Suite, which includes Photoshop.
    Avid Media Composer is, IMHO the best "story telling" editor, but is a little more difficult and unwieldy when it comes to effects etc. In addition to being pricey, it also require compliance with the use of only AVID approved hardware.
    Autodesk has Smoke on the Mac, which is an excellent effects editor, but with a $17K price tag.
    My personal plan is to bunker my FCS 3 systems and run them until they drop, while slowly and comfortable migrating to Premiere Pro.
    One big advantage to either of these editors (with the exception of Smoke on the Mac)  is that they are cross-platform, so if you learn the Mac version you can switch easily to the PC version - which protects your investment of time in learning the softwre as the future for the Mac Pro is also hazy.

  • Archiving a FCE project

    I know that in iMovie I can easily archive Events by going into iMovie, finding the external drive and dragging events from the internal hardd rive folder into the external drive folder. Is there an equivalent in FCE?
    I have about 35GB of elements (video clips, music, etc.) that FCE knows where to find on my internal hard drive. I'd like to store these on an external drive. How can I move them to the external drive so that FCE knows where they are? Or do I just move them off, and then if I ever need to use them again, move them back onto the internal drive?
    Thanks in advance for whatever advice you can offer.

    Hello Roger,
    To archive an FCE project you need to keep the _FCE project file_ and any _source media_ that you used (video clips, stills, audio files, etc).
    Normally,
    FCE project files are in the +Final Cut Express Documents+ folder
    Video clips are in the +Final Cut Express Documents/Capture Scratch+ folder
    Other media (stills, audio) will be where ever you saved them on your hard drive.
    For project archiving, I usually copy all these files to a single folder having a logical name that identifies the project.

  • Archiving an iMovie Project

    Howdy All,
    For iMovie 6:
    1. "Burn Project to Disc..." in iMovie sounds like it would burn all the files (maybe less cache files) in the iMovie project, as a package say, so you could reload it and it would be just like before (less cache files). Is this true?
    2. "Burn Project to Disc..." seems to be limited to one optical disc. Is this true? If so, this seems to be a severe limitation, most projects I have done using DV are easily bigger than what a DL disc can hold.
    3. If I archive the iMovie project via some other means (e.g. using Toast) will the project contain all the required resources (except, possibly fonts)? Assuming movies added to the project don't reference external movies!
    Thanks in advance for any specific answers to these questions.
    Cheers,
    Ashley.

    1. Yes, it's still editable.
    2. Unfortunately, you are limited to one disc.
    3. I use Toast 7, which can span multiple discs. (Toast 8 can, too). NOTE: Use the "Data" pane in Toast, NOT the "video pane". You also need to backup all third-party plug-ins and fonts you may have.
