Good morning;
I'd like to know if it's possible to make a query in Azure DevOps for obtaining the team's users accesses stats.
I can obtain the cards modified by the users, but i want to know if there's a way to know if the users are accessing to the boards (using Azure devops queries).
Thanks!!
Do you mean to get users list who are accessing boards?
If so, I am afraid that there is no way to get this information right now.
This feature is not supported by azure devops for the time being.
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.
Thank you for your response.
As you said, I need the list of the users who are accessing boards.
By the moment, I'll obtain the number of cards modified by each user, and this could give me an idea about the users activity.

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 have one Azure DevOps organisation and under that organisation lot of work is happening like adding project, adding users, giving different-different access level to users.
I want to prepare a report and chart which will show how many project got added in given time frame, how many users got access, what kind of access has been given to each users etc.
Can anybody suggest how can i achieve this?
Thanks
You could use REST api to generate your own report.
Projects - List: Get all projects in the organization that the authenticated user has access to.
GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/_apis/projects?api-version=5.1
User Entitlements - List: Get a paged set of user entitlements.
GET https://vsaex.dev.azure.com/{organization}/_apis/userentitlements?api-version=4.1-preview.1
thanking you in advance for helping me out.
Does anyone know if there is a way to enter information on an item without the client seeing it? Is there a plugin or extension I can install?
As far as I know,you can not use the azure devops to enter information on an sprint item without the client seeing it.Even if your grant the Stakeholder access level for your client,they also can see the information about the sprint item.
If you just want to share your completed sprint plan and inform other members of your team or organization.You can click here.
Hope this helps and have a nice day!
I have been trawling the internet and clicking myself blue in the face! Hopefully someone has a definitive answer.
I want to have one Group (in either of Azure AD, Microsoft Teams or Azure DevOps). This group must have access to a DevOps project and a Team site. When I change the membership of the group, the membership must change for both the Team and the DevOps project. I want to avoid the overhead of managing the groups for both separately.
Is this at all possible? Thanks.
This is a really good question, and the answer is not obvious at all. Ironically we had the same exact problem in Microsoft Teams - when a user was added or deleted from the underlying Office 365 Group (which is mastered in Azure AD), it would take up to an hour, sometimes more, to be reflected in Teams, which has its own copy of the member list.
There is a way to do it, and it's how Teams does it: it relies on a relatively new feature in Microsoft Graph called subscriptions. You can find the documentation for it here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/subscription?view=graph-rest-1.0.
Essentially what you want to do is create a subscription to the group: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/subscriptions with the right message body and your endpoint will be called whenever there's a membership change in the group. Your endpoint won't know what changed, just the event and some IDs - you will likely have to make a separate call to retrieve the actual data (unless the IDs alone are sufficient).
There's a sample on GitHub that illustrates how to use Microsoft Graph subscriptions including more details on how to subscribe to group notifications specifically.
One thing to be aware of is that to use these APIs, your application will require fairly elevated permissions: Group.Read.All which means it has the ability to read not only the team/group members, but all of its messages too (among other things), for every group in your Office 365 tenant. We are working with the MS Graph team to support a less-privileged, per-group permission approach, but even after that's released for Teams Graph APIs, support for that will have to be added to the subscriptions APIs I just mentioned and that may not happen for a while.
I've been asked to generate a report listing all the dashboards used by a team, who created them and when. Anyone know how to get this information from Azure DevOps? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Unfortunately we cannot get the history information for now.
We can get the list of dashboards for a specific team by calling the REST API (Dashboards - List), and retrieve the properties (detail information) for a specific dashborad (Dashboards - Get), but both not include the history information (Created By and Created Date in your scenario).
There's already a user voice submitted here to suggest the related feature with adding Activity Log to Azure DevOps (VSTS) to track user access, you can go and vote it up or submit a new user voice to suggest the feature to achieve that in future release...
