No SharePoint properties found.
This update also addresses the encoding issue of the document URL.

-
You can't update the Status Manager field for a task through the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM).
-
When you create and insert a new task into a collapsed task outline in a project through the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM), the new task may be inserted at the wrong location in the project.
-
When you assign a resource to a task through the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM), this is done based on the resource name instead of pairing the resource and task GUID fields. As a result, the resource that is assigned to the task is not the one that is specified through CSOM.
-
When the scheduled Backup and Restore Timer job runs, SQL Server deadlocks occur when an archived version of the project has to be deleted before a new version can be written.
-
If a task link is created between two tasks, the dependency type of the task link can't be changed through the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM).

-
You can't return a list of template projects by using the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM) ProjectCollection.
-
You can't update a Lookup Table mask through the Client-Side Object Model (CSOM). Therefore, you can't programmatically add a value to the Lookup Table at the level that is not defined in the mask.
