How can we prepare chart for Azure DevOps orgnization - azure-devops

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

Obtain User Access Metrics in Azure DevOps

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.

Option to limit visibilty of users in Azure DevOps

Our main Azure DevOps Organization is linked to our Azure AD. We need to invite customers to specific projects as stakeholder only, and with this, they are added as external users in our AD. We found that within a customer project also, all other external users are visible, e.g. via mention with # anywhere in the text or assignment drop-down, although these do not have access to that project. Our only workaround so far is to create new non AD linked customer specific organizations, but this is really not the right way to go (licencing, management etc.)
Is there any option to prevent this and to restrict visibility to only those users, which are part of a project (or planned)?
I tested and found the same issue as you said. It is by design, you can raise a problem in the Developer Community
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/spaces/21/index.html
Besides, since there is a workaround that works now, continue on this basis. You can create different AAD for the customer specific organizations, then add the customers to these AAD. Thus, these users will be invisible because they are in different AAD organizations.

Can't #mention or Assign Work Items to Other Users in Azure DevOps

In the Azure DevOps project I'm currently working on, I am unable to use the # mention feature and am not able to assign work items to other users because no users are ever found. I am aware that you should be able to search for other users if they don't initially show-up in the drop-down list, but searching always returns "No identities found".
Other members of my team that have elevated permissions than I do can use these features because they are able to search for any other user in the same Azure DevOps project. My project administrator gave-up trying to figure-out why these features won't work for me.
Is there a setting in the Azure DevOps Project Settings Permissions that enables or disables the ability to view other user names?
Here is an example of me trying to look-up my own name to assign a bug to myself without success:
And here is an example of me trying to #mention a user in a bug discussion section without success:
* Update *
When my project administrator gives me project administrator rights, I am able to #mention others. Obviously, that isn't the desired user level for a non admin like myself.

Azure DevOps Dashboard Created By Created Date

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...

AD Azure Graph API does not return directorylinkchanges

I am using differential query feature provided by AD Azure graph apis as described here
Things are working fine except for one issue. The sample responses in the link show that membership changes are sent across as directorylinkchange objects but I do not receive any such objects with similar queries on making membership changes from the portal.
I am doing a GET to
https://graph.windows.net/<domain-name>/directoryObjects?api-version=2013-04-05&$filter=isof('Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.Group')%20or%20isof('Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.User')&deltaLink=cLbsN4TzLm92uH26XEe7Ph6HfE10VkRsxjmz8 ..[truncated]
I am not sure if I am missing something here as I am able to fetch other User and Group changes. So could anyone working on azure be able help me out on this one. Thanks !!
Ok. answer to my own question is , that the URL filter must contain all three object classes User, Group and Contact just like it is in the microsoft sample.
https://graph.windows.net/contoso.com/directoryObjects?api-version=2013-04-05&$filter=isof('Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.User')%20or%20isof('Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.Group')%20or%20isof('Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.Contact')
