as the title describes i want an alert that sends me an email whenever a change happens to a work item that is assigned to one of my Team Members. Beware this is not a Project Team, it is a specific Group.
As i would understand this: I need an alert under My Alerts since only me needs to be informed but when I try the Assigned to Field with my group, it doesn't work with contains operator and the in group operator isn't shown.
Kind Regards
Christian
contains operator means when Assigned to Field has the value you specify in filter, the alert will be triggered.
The only way to achieve your requirement is to add multiple Assigned to clauses and group them with Or like the screenshot below:

In the construction of the bot, I should be able access the slotypes I created. but I can't see them. There are videos that they we can create slot types and use them in building intents. Even though my slot type exists I can't access them while I am building the Utterances
In order to reference the slot types within an intent's utterances, you need to have added those slot types to slots within the intent.
Please take a look at this example where I have a slot called quantity of type AMAZON.Number. I can then reference the quantity slot within any utterance that I have.
Reegz's answer was very good and seemed to cover everything so I apologize if I am repeating things.
You've created your own custom slots already, however, you must include them in the intent you want to use them with.
You must do this before you add them to Utterances. Otherwise they will not appear in the drop-down.
Add the slots to the intent by going to the Slots section of your intent:
Click on the Add slot button on the top right corner of this section.
Create a name for the slot, this is similar to setting a variable name for an object. This name is also how you will access the Slot.
You may need to click save on the intent in order to see changes in the slot drop-down.
Now when you go to add a new Utterance, your custom slot should appear:
Let me know if you have anymore questions. I hope this helps you.
I need to create a dashboard widget for Azure DevOps that shows number of work items of a specified type, that transitioned from one state to another.
It looks like the Updates endpoint is my best bet, but that means that I would have to iterate over all of the updates of workitems for the specified type and then determine if it contains the state transition I'm looking for, e.g. Closed to Open.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/wit/updates/list?view=azure-devops-server-rest-5.0
The Analytics extension looked promising, but it looks like I would need to query the Revisions dataset, and that doesn't contain the old and new values.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/report/extend-analytics/wit-analytics?view=azure-devops
The use case is to show the number of bugs that were closed then reopened in the last 90 days. I thought that I would make the work item type and from and to states configurable.
Any ideas or suggestions much appreciated!
Best approach to get count of workitems state transitions?
At this moment, we could not query the History with State changed from one state to another state on Web UI directly.
As workaround, we could add a custom field in our custom process that gets set the value to true when workitems state change from Closed to New:
Then add a Rules to set the value of the custom field to True if the workitems state change from Closed to New:
Finally, we could query the workitems with following conditions:
BTW, if you want to get those workitems which state already changed from Closed to New before use above custom filed and rules, I am afraid you have to use Rest API to query the work items that in specified type:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/vsts/wit/wiql/query%20by%20wiql
Then loop the work items list to get all revisions for every work item with Revision - List API:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/vsts/wit/revisions/list
There is a article for TFS TFS SDK: Work Item History Visualizer using TFS API, you can check it for some more details.
Hope this helps.
You may do it through PowerBI. Calculate time-in-state for an existing Analytics view
Or as you said iterate over all of the updates of workitems.
I'm a bit confused on how we are supposed to update a group using the Valence API.
According to documentation, "Name,Code & Description" are required for updating, but the FETCH group block only returns "GroupID,Name, Description and Enrollments". If Group Code is not returned in the fetch, what value are we supposed to use in the update block if we only want to update the name? Since description is provided I can just feed that back, but what am I supposed to do about code ... just lose that data?
Perhaps there a way to send an update that will update only specific fields in the update block? When I omit fields from the update block I currently receive an error (ie in the case I only want to update the name).
The Code property for Groups is intended to be the "org-defined code" for the group (for a course offering, this is often called the "course code"), the one that might appear in the organization's SIS system, for example.
Because groups in Desire2Learn's Learning Suite are considered "org units", when you create one, you need to provide it with an appropriate org-defined code (Code) -- if your organization doesn't use org-defined codes for groups, then you can decide to systematically use some other kind of data by convention (a name, a descriptive string, and so on). You are correct that's inconvenient for the Fetch form of the GroupData structure not to provide this value for you, but the value will be accessible to callers through the organization structure routes (because the newly created group is just an special kind of org unit).
In Learning Suite v10.2 (LP API v1.3+) and later, you can use a single GET call to fetch back the properties for an org unit. In versions prior to v10.2, you will need to fetch the list of parents for the group to get a parent org unit ID, or if you already know the org unit ID for the course offering that owns the group you can use that; then you use that org unit ID to fetch its list of children: your group will be in that list. The OrgUnit and OrgUnitProperties structures both contain the Code property that you need here.
Is there a way to auto increment a number field in a WITT (e.g. Bug). We've got a requirement that we want contiguous Bug ids (note - not its actual id but a separate field).
Can this field be done unique per collection OR unique per project (thus duplicates would occur in the collection).
---edit
I've no idea how to tackle this, but I'm wondering if I could use a globalist, e.g. bug creation triggers the adding (replacement) of a value to the list?
There is no way to do this directly through the WIT platform. You would need to write some sort of custom service to do this for you on the creation of a new bug.
My answer goes into the same direction like aaronbjorks one.
Create a webservice that gets alerted if a new bug is created, then just write down the bug ID in a database with an identity column. On the workitem you can create a custom control, that gets the identity for that bug from the database and displays it somewhere.
A possible workaround would be exporting your items query to Excel and let it update the IDs upon Publish. Make sure once an ID was assigned, tag it as FROZEN.
I have a customer requirement to export the checks written in QuickBooks into a specific format because their bank allows fraud prevention by uploading a file and they verify the name on the check against what you give them before clearing it.
I looked at the QuickBooks SDK (we use the XML to communicate in general) and It references a field on the check called PayeeEntityRef with a FullName property, but typically in QuickBooks that data structure would indicate what the entity is called, not what appears on the check (Vendors have a NameOnCheck property, for example, which can be something other than their name).
Without coding up multiple test cases to demonstrate QuickBooks behavior here, does anyone have experience with getting the name as it was printed on the check? What is the best way to do it?
It's somewhat possible to get what you are wanting, but there are going to be some hiccups that you'll need to let you client know about. The main problem being that there's no way to retrieve the actual name printed on the check.
You would first need to query for the Checks/Bill Payment - Checks for the bank account. Then, using the PayeeEntityRef (I would use the ListID component) figure out which "List" the entity is on; Customer, Vendor, Employee, or Other. I don't know of any way to tell which list the PayeeEntityRef is from other than doing a query for each of the lists.
If the PayeeEntityRef is a Vendor or Employee, then you can retrieve the NameOnCheck value. The only thing you would need to keep in mind is that if the NameOnCheck has been modified AFTER the check was printed, the names will not match.
If the PayeeEntityRef is a Customer or Other name, then you have to do a little bit more. The value that QuickBooks uses for the printed name is based on what fields are filled out for the customer record. It first will use the CompanyName field if it is not null. Next, it will try to use the First/Middle/LastName fields, if they are not null. Finally, it will use the Name field as a last resort. Keep in mind that this is not the FullName field, just the Name field.
I haven't tested this with an "Other" name, as I have my clients try not to use that list, but I would imagine it's similar to how Customers work.
