Allow application user to submit bugs to TFS 2008 - tfs

I'm currently trying to find out if there is a way to allow our nightly build application users to submit bug items to TFS. Everything is developed and used within our private network so there aren't any security issues of that nature that I am aware of. I don't necessarily need them to be able to assign the bug specifics, but give a title and a description. It could be equally valuable if users can submit to an issue tracking page on the TFS Project Site.
Application Language: C#
Possible Workflow:
User encounters an issue while using the application
User click feedback button that is only shown in the nightly build
User fills form detailing issue
User clicks submit
Information including user's name is sent to the TFS server and a new bug item is created
Developers receive a notification (using tfs reporting) and assigns bug appropriately
Developer contacts user to elaborate on the issue
Developer fixes bug

You can use the existing work items, along with the work item web access feature (WIWA) to allow them to enter the bugs. I believe there isn't a license requirement for them to enter and view their own work items.
WIWA is (default) located at: http://tfs:8090/wiwa

Sending multilanguage notifications to MS Teams user from a LogicApp

I have a LogicApp that, in some cases, can decide to send a notification to a user via Teams (provided that the target user has installed the associated Teams App).
I was successful in doing so by using the approach presented here.
However, I got stucked when it comes to localize the message.
My first idea was to retrieve somehow the user language settings, but it seems that this info is not available through the Graph API.
Any other idea on how to implement this feature?

What do I need to do to publish my app in the Microsoft Store after associating it?

I am trying to pubish my Winforms app to the Microsoft Store. My solution uses a Packaging project, and I selected "Publish" from the Packaging App in Visual Studio 2019.
I first selected item #1 in the screenshot below and went through the steps there (selecting the "Finish" button, which gave no feedback); then I selected item #2. There were also no messages after associating my app with the Store (either that it failed or not).
So I searched the Microsoft Store for my app, and it was not there...
What do I need yet to do, or what did I do wrong? What is the next step after associating my app to actually upload it?
By looking through screenshots I'd taken of a previous Microsoft Store submission, I was able to see that you must go here to submit your app:
https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/dashboard/products/
...to submit an app; but from where do you reach this otherwise (if you don't already have the URL squirreled away somewhere)? It's odd that the submission page is hidden or at least so hard to find. Does MS actively discourage uploads of apps by making the process difficult?
It seems to me there should be an Upload option right from the Microsoft Store that would lead you to this page.

Team Foundation Server 2018 User is missing contact information of Exchange

We are trying to setup a TFS 2018 Update3.2 as ticketing system based on CMMI. I tried several things and begin to understand how everything works, except one very important thing.
We want to use the notifications and the emails are send correctly to 2 of 4 users. 1 user has no email, so that's ok, but me (my own account), don't gets any emails. I tried to set my email address by hand in the field: My Profile -> Preferred email. But that doesn't work either.
When I open a group with all users and click on them, I get to see the initials of my name and my full name. When I click on one of the working accounts, there are also contact informations (an email address and the possibility to start a sip chat.
So I looked into our Exchange (seems to make sense), but I don't have found any differences between my settings and those of the working accounts. I am also searching here now for more than an hour, so I don't think that the service still has to update.
Anyone an idea where I could look? How do I get my email address from the AD to the TFS? Or maybe how can I force a synchronization? Or delete all cache items and reload everything by it?
EDIT:
I killed the cache directory (the GUID-directory inside) and then everything got relaoded and now I get emails too.
If you clear the cache, the problem is solved.

Jira - Avoid getting mail on change/comment on task I'm the ASSIGNEE

I'm getting mails from jira for all tasks I'm ASSIGNEE to
This is a good,except I want to avoid getting mail every change/comment I make on this task
I couldn't find any settings in my account, Can this be disabled?
I read in jira that it should be the case by default
Jira's default setting is to not notify users of their own changes. This can be changed on a per user basis via their profile preferences.
You can do this via the Preferences page in JIRA. Detailed instructions are here.
Click on your Profile on the top right of the screen.
Click the pencil next to Preferences.
Change the My Changes dropdown value to Do not notify me.
You should now no longer get emails for actions you've done on a ticket. The only downside is that you'll now also no longer get notifications when you create a ticket.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM for phones "Not authorized to use this app" - IOS

I have has an issue with my organization not being able to log into the Dynamics CRM app.
i tried to re-install the app many times, made sure the "CRM for mobile" option was selected in the Business management tab of their security role, as well as making sure they had full access to "System Application Metadata" under the Customization tab of their security role. I had not used the apps under any other organization and so all of the support threads i had came to a dead end.
When starting the app for the first time it would show the "tip" screen but with no writing below it (normally would say something like "5/5 processing metadata")
waiting long enough or trying to go back into this would generate an error that they were not authorized (even for me who was system administrator)
I am running CRM online 2016 with iPhone 5S
After much re-installing and mucking around with security roles, it seems that any IOS version before 9.3.1 was giving this issue. Updating the phones have given all of my users access to the mobile app. Hope this helps someone.
Check whether any valid security role is given to the user..
