Next, make sure you can get in!

Add user After you sign up, the first thing you should do is make sure your account is assigned a Project Online license. Some accounts are and some aren't.

Licenses
To check if you're assigned a license:

  1. Choose Users > Active Users from the left menu on the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  2. Choose your account.
  3. Confirm that the Project Online check box is selected.
Even if, as the administrator, you don't actually plan to use Project Online, the only way you'll be able to see that Project Online is, in fact, included in your Microsoft 365 account is by giving yourself a license to use it. You can go back in later and remove your license to free it up for another user, if needed.

Be patient...

When you come back to check on setup, refresh the page. If you see Projects listed on the menu bar, you’re ready to go!
Click the ... button in the blue bar, and then click Projects.
