I would like to know if an existing solution is already existing in order to display a visual dashboard with an aggregation of info coming from MS team server foundation (builds status) and SonarQube analysis..
I know I can do it by myself by consuming the API from the two but I would like to not reinventing the wheel..
I tried to google it but I'm not finding anything. Does someone already using something like that?
As a product manager at SonarSource, I'm not aware of such kind of tool/dashboard.

I am trying to use this How to get all sprints in project using JIRA REST API to build code which gets all sprints for jira project. I miss one piece however: how to get all boards in jira project?
Proposed solution is to
use https://myjira.com/rest/agile/1.0/board to get all boards
and for every board to query https://myjira.com/rest/agile/1.0/board/BOARD_ID/project to find out if it belongs to my project.
However my jira has ~10'000 boards. I can't make 10'000 JIRA queries for them. I need something like https://myjira.com/rest/agile/1.0/board?project=PROJECTNAME. If that's not possible, then I need at least to include project name into /board result.
Acc. to https://docs.atlassian.com/jira-software/REST/7.3.1/?#agile/1.0/board-getAllBoards you can use the projectKeyOrId parameter in your GET request to provide the project's key, e.g.
https://myjira.com/rest/agile/1.0/board?projectKeyOrId=PROJECTNAME
We are currently using an on premise TFS 2018 installation and there are a couple of custom applications that use the Microsoft.TeamFoundationServer.ExtendedClient in order to communicate with TFS. Now since some assemblies in the extended client are going to be deprecated (link) and a move to Azure DevOps services is a possibility I have started checking the replacement (link)
In our current implementation we are using global lists and extendedClient WorkItemStore had the ExportGlobalLists/ImportGlobalLists methods that were handy
The problem is that I cannot find an equivalent method in the new client
is witadmin the only option?
I have found this in the REST API (link) but it doesn't seem to work for on-premise so I could test it out
Any ideas would be welcome
As far as I know, there is no concept of a global list any more in Azure DevOps Services. If you want to customize the fields, it is usually defining the available list on the field.
We are utilizing the lists on-premise Azure DevOps Server 2019, but only ever interact to get them from witadmin.
According the comment in this case:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/312980/cannot-edit-existing-global-lists.html?childToView=338672#comment-338672
Global lists are now part of a specific work item. To edit the list
you should 1) export the process 2) look into the xml for the work
items. Global lists are usually added to the bug or task wit 3) make
the global list changes in the xml 4) zip up the process and import
back into Azure DevOps.
I have been tasked with creating a custom planning view from TFS.
I have a reasonable amount of experience with the TFS Api but I want to try and avoid having to create and maintain a new application for this.
I have looked at SSRS for TFS but I am unable to access all of the data I need (tags etc.) so this is not an option (as it will invalidate support).
I would ideally like to create a "widget" to appear on one of the TFS dashboards but am not sure where to start. The widget would also need to allow access to the TFS api to gather the data it needs to generate.
Please can someone advise where I may look to start or an alternative approach.
You may want to take a look at http://integrate.visualstudio.com where you can find documentation for the TFS API. The REST API works for TFS 2015 and above.
While you can extend the web interface with Extensions (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/) in Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS), this feature is not yet available in TFS on-premises as of TFS 2015 Update 1.
You can check the published feature timeline for updates, but at this time extensions for TFS are marked as "TBD".
If you're working with TFS2013 + Update2 or a higher version of TFS, it is allowed for Team Administrators to customize TFS dashboard via pinning items to the homepage without writing any code.
For example, if you would like to add a chart into the dashboard, you just need to go to the query’s Charts page and pin it to the home page. See the following image (quoted from this MSDN article)
I am transferring a jira issue to TFS WIT in my company. My team used TFS2012, they use JIRA. So I want to migrate the JIRA issues into TFS2012 WIT.
I want to preserve all the basic fields, attachments and comment history & work logging.
Any suggestions regarding tools or processes for this?
I looked into dumping the issues into an Excel spreadsheet, but that doesn't include attachments or comments.
Integration Platform
Good luck, the migration isn't usually a lot of fun.
using comment-plugins we can export comment on excel....
here we can find the comment plugins
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/How+to+add+comments+to+Excel+export
(we could map this to History field in TFS once we export it to Excel)
nearly 3week i worked on this task
finaly i got it
For this task we simply add USETFS plugin in jira that carry everything i mean comment tfsid and attachment everything its come under USETFS plugin in jira.
Is there any focused documentation on achieving the following with TFS. I find myself having to read through tonnes of documentation on MSDN and I find nothing is listed under topics as such or maybe I don't know what to look for. I have no experience in TFS other than checking files in and out and I am still trying to understand what each of these mean and how to find it in the docs, without much luck.
Gated check-in + continuous build for select projects.
Gated check-in + scheduled builds for other select projects.
Dashboards and reporting to select individuals or groups
Access for testing team members to only selective work item creation of the TFS project they are assigned to. They
should be able to get the latest version of the code and be able to log a workitem-bug, workitem-issue, workitem-testcase but they should not be able to create for eg. workitem:use case.
Testers should not be able to modify code.
Sending mails to persons who have a work item assigned to them, with
select persons in copy.
Sending of emails to anyone against whom a bug is assigned. When bug
is closed the person who raised the bug should get notified via
email.
Sending mails to key persons of a project defined somewhere in TFS,
on build failure of that project.
If anyone has already done something like any of the points listed above then can you please let me know the steps? Somehow the documentation jumping too many links and going in various tangents.
Thanks for your time and patience..
