I've created the function, which returns JobRequests of agents' jobs through Rest API.
I wonder about some jobs on one agent, which are started at one time but mapped every time to different builds (and when I click on this job in Azure DevOps Web UI - I've got "Build is not found".
I’ve noticed, that all these job requests have the next same parameters:
serviceOwner : 00025394-6065-48ca-87d9-7f5672854ef7
hostId : ffaea179-06ce-45ea-afcd-fde8cd8d156f
scopeId : 6a21ca14-654d-492e-8c3b-83fa3a910dc6
May somebody explain what do these parameters mean (or point to the documentation link, where it is explained).
And how can I get the real Azure DevOps objects using these IDs?
Thank You!

Is there a way to list multi-stage automated test run results, on a per stage basis, using Azure DevOps GET Api?
If you call /_apis/pipelines/{pl_def_id}/runs , you will get a list of builds from a defined pipeline.
If you get the latest build from that list, and if that build is multi-stage, the test runs do not seem to be hierarchically beneath the latest build, as you might expect.
To get the test runs, when you call /_apis/test/runs, ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/test/runs/list ) it only can give you the list of ALL runs within your org+project. There does not seem to be an id that references the multi-staged "test runs" tasks back to the "parent pipeline" having a "build id".
I looked at timeline queries, but they don't seem to have that info either.
HOW can this be achieved with ADO GET api? Am I overlooking the answer?
There is a parameter buildUri in the run list API as you mentioned the doc:Run List
You can use buildUri to get test runs from a specified build of pipeline.
However, if you want to get multi-stage automated test run results on a per stage, I’m afraid that there’s no supported API to achieve it.

So there is List Release Deployments API. It allows to get all the deployments started after the given timestamp. However, how to get those completed after it?
Rationale
Suppose I want to write a scheduled job that fetches information about completed deployments and pushes it to an Azure Application Insights bucket (for example for DORA metrics). I do not understand how it can be done easily without the ability to filter by the completion date. A relatively hard way would be to fetch by the started date, notice all the deployments inProgress or notDeployed and record them in a dedicated database. Then on the next polling cycle fetch new deployments and all those still recorded in the aforementioned database. This is much more complicated than it could have been with the ability to filter by the completion date.
Am I missing anything here? Maybe there is a simpler way (possibly using another API) that I just do not see?
EDIT 1
By the way, the hard way is even harder than I thought, since apparently there is no way to fetch release deployments by their Id.
EDIT 2
The plot thickens. If a stage has post deployment approvals, then the stage is reported as inProgress, even though de facto it has already been deployed. So an API that just filters by completion date would omit such deployments. It has to be with an option to include such deployments.
I am trying to invoke the Rest API below for getting list of work items which are mapping to a specific iteration.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/work/iterations/get%20iteration%20work%20items?view=azure-devops-rest-5.1
Ultimately I want to invoke this as part of the Approval step in my Release pipeline so that the approver can verify if all work items for a given iteration are in Completed state.
I have two questions:
I don't know how to get the values for {team} and {iterationid}
How do I invoke this API as part of the approval gate. Should I use a Generic service connection? What user name and password do I need to provide?
Any working example here will be really helpful.
To get teams, you can use Teams - Get Teams on Team Project.
Then you can find all team iterations and their ids Iterations - List
You can use gates with azure function. Here is the example: Azure DevOps release gates with Azure Functions, PowerShell and VS Code
Additionally, you may consider to use quality gates with a work item query: Use approvals and gates to control your deployment
I have a bamboo plan that runs on every commit to a github pull request. In that bamboo plan there are a few custom variables on it such as Git Sha, Github Pull Request Number, etc.
I want to write a script that stops all previous builds (multiple concurrent builds) that have the same pull request number -- same custom variable value.
The reason for this is that if someone makes a quick change to their pull request (comments on the review, etc) that we don't have multiple builds running when only the last one is necessary.
I know it is possible to stop a build with a rest request, but I need a way to be able to get all running builds with custom variable value = 27 (pull request number). Once I know this, I can proceed.
At the time of writing, the REST API documentation doesn't list any method of querying the running builds for a particular build variable.
A solution would be to create your own plugin for Bamboo that exposes a REST service that does this query for you, but I don't know which of the Java APIs you would need to use in order to perform that query.
Here is how I solved this ...
You can call /rest/api/latest/result/<plankey>-latest?includeAllStates=true&expand=variables where plankey is the key for the specific Bamboo build plan.
You then loop through the results you get back, looking for a lifeCycleState value that is not Finished, and a custom variable with the desired name to see if it matches the PR number you have.
What information are we able to query on a workflow job? Anything regarding a particular build's stage status (succeeded, failed, hasn't reached yet, aborted, etc.)? I see we can interact with the input step using this method, but where can we find what metadata, if anything, can be obtained about our builds?
The REST exported API for builds (…/job/…/…/api/json?tree=…) is not very extensive yet. You can get some information about nodes in the flow graph (steps, and some associated block nodes—the stuff you see in Workflow Steps). It is possible to extract some information about stages from that, albeit not easily. Much more is available from the Java API.
