Read Project Online Local Custom Field With OData

Question
-
Hello,
I'm trying something for a client. I have to read the value of local custom fields TaskText7 and TaskText10 with OData from Project Online and create a report in Excel. The report uses the OData url for retrieving data, and that is it, no C# code. I can't find them anywhere in OData. Tried to copy the values in an Enterprise Custom Field but I can't find them in formula either.
Thanks

Hello,
In an enterprise PPM system it would be recommended to use Enterprise Custom Fields. Local fields will not be available in the APIs for reporting plus as you have seen, they can't be reference in Enterprise custom formula fields. They are local to that project only.
