We have moved our project to a different organization on Azure Devops. For those visiting the old project, we want to display a banner notifying the user of our new location.
I have found this documentation online to add a banner:
https://microsoft.visualstudio.com/_settings/ms-eswm.banner-settings-hub.hub
However we only want the banner to apply to the project, not the entire organization. Is that possible?
How to add a Banner to a specific Project on Azure Devops
For this issue, I am afraid this is currently impossible to achieve in azure devops. Azure DevOps enables you to put a banner message on the top of the browser window to display a message. Every page on Azure DevOps will show this message until the user closes the banner bar, or the message expires.
There are two ways to add a banner: Banner Settings Extension and Azure DevOps CLI. Neither of these two ways can only add a banner to a specific project. The parameter of the specified project is not provided in the az devops cli.
So currently, you can only write the project that needs the user's attention in the banner message. In addition, you could add your request for this feature on our UserVoice site , which is our main forum for product suggestions. After suggest raised, you can vote and add your comments for this feedback. The product team would provide the updates if they view it.

I was moved from one DevOps organisation to another and access to the old org was removed. This caused my MS Teams DevOps plugin to stop working in private chats, but was fine in team channels.
When I tried to open the app settings, I got a white window with a JSON that suggested a permission problem.
How do I connect the app to the new organisation?
Trying to open the app settings using the Teams webpage I got a popup that let me read the request URL and I saw the two GET parameters for organisation and project ID.
Removing those two parameters gave me a screen to select an organisation and a project. The tab closed right away and the integration is fixed.
I guess replacing the project_id and tfs_uri with the correct data from the target project would work, too, but that's the purpose of the section page, already.
Going to the app settings now yields this exact selection page, by the way, so this is a bug in the DevOps Teams app. There's one line of information at the top that apparently requires access to the DevOps organisation and needlessly gates the whole dialog behind organisation access permissions.
We have created a field in all Work Items, named "Manager" to assign the Manager of the developer/tester, to whom the work item is assigned to. Now that person in the Manager field is not getting any email Notification when the assignee updates the work item.
Tried setting the notification, but creating notification for every work item is not feasible.
I tried with setting rules, but doesn't seem to have the right conditions and actions available.
I read about third party tools like power automate. Before jumping into that solution, I would like to know if this can be achieved with the existing configuration settings in Azure Devops

I am afraid that azure devops currently does not provide built-in configuration settings to achieve this requirement.

I set up a DevOps post-deployment approval system successfully. When the user gets a mail to approve my changes in my project, the summary looks like this:
Summary screenshot
Is there a way to show the commits I made which are getting installed in this version. The idea is to make it easier for the customer to get the newest changes out of this mail.
Thank you in advance!

For this issue , if your release pipeline uses build as the artifact source, then the build version will be displayed in the pending approval email. Clicking build version will jump to the corresponding build page. In this build summary page, you will see the corresponding commits. Then click on this commit to view detailed changes.
If you want to display detailed commit information in the email summary, I am afraid this is currently not supported. The content that can be displayed in the notifications email is designed and cannot be changed.

We have a DevOps project we've been using for over a year now and we needed to add a new developer to the team. I was able to add the user to the organization, he replied to the invite, and I have added him to the contributor group.
After adding him I then went to my project and opened up that project's Team Settings. When I click Add and try to find his name I am getting a spinning status graphic and "Loading..." but it does not find the user. It does not give me an error or a "No Results Found". Eventually it just resets back as though I first landed on the page.
I thought this could be a permissions issue so I removed an existing user in the group. Right after removing I tried to re-add the user and cannot. I get the same results. I know this user is using the project and has permission to get the code and check in changes. So it does not seem to be an issue with the original new user.
My next move was to try to do this using the Azure CLI but it turns out that adding a user to a project is not currently supported by the CLI, only adding the user to the organization is currently supported. I also searched for this particular error and can't find anyone else having this issue.
There was a [[[bug]]] in the Azure portal. Users could not be added from the Team page. However, I had a widget on my dashboard for Users and it had the ability to add a User. When I used this widget I was able to add users. I could add the ones I deleted during testing and the new user.
We're trying to automate when UserStories are resolved in Azure Devops, the attached video on the UserStory gets posted as a New Yammer Post where the contents includes the Title of the UserStory and the video is saved as an attachment to the post. This helps our company keep up to date with new functionality added to the system, to try and keep everyone updated with developments each build.
Since this feature does not supported by service hook or other UI of Azure Devops.
You can try with one third-party website Zappier, and try with Post Yammer messages for updated Visual Studio Online work items.
After click Try it, you will be direct to the page that need you specified the org and Yammer account. Please follow the page step to configure it.
After configure it, please edit the message which you want to achieve:
And then, according to your demand to specified the configuration of Azure Devops and Yammer event condition:
