Critical Path not working as expected

Gantt
#1

Hi,

Our team is importing primavera p6 schedule into our system which use dhtmlx gantt.
I have checked the tasks and task links are both imported correctly, but the critical path is not showing as it is in primavera p6.
Are there anyways to debug or check what is wrong on calculating the critical path?
And also is there any plan to directly import an p6 schedule which is in .xer format.

Thanks,
Jacob

Hi jacob. were you successful in integrating primavera p6 to gantt chart ?

I am also trying to import XER file (primavera p6 schedule) using dhtmlx gantt API. But I didn’t get float value or task criticality in json response.

Hello,
To import additional properties from Primavera, you need to specify them in the configuration object of the importFromPrimaveraP6 method:

gantt.importFromPrimaveraP6({ 
    data: file,
    taskProperties: ["Critical"],
    ...
});

You can find all the available properties listed here: Properties for importing from Primavera Gantt Docs
