Is it possible to connect between TFS Azure boards to its pipeline continuous integration?
I am afraid it is impossible to connect current azure sprint boards with different work items and tasks to azure pipeline release automation.
Even we could not link work items for an existing release for now. That because we could only associate the work items to a changeset instead of sprint boards when you check in the changes.
If you want to link workitem to a release, we could use following workaround:
- Associate the work items to a changeset when you check in the changes
- Then enable Automatically link new work in this build under Option in
the build pipeline. Thus when a build completes successfully, it will
create links to all work items linked to associated changes. See
Automatic linking work items to builds for details.
- Create a release pipeline and set the build which created in step2 as
the artifacts source (For CI/CD).
Check this thread for some more details.
But if you still want to connect azure sprint boards with different work items and tasks to azure pipeline release automation, this may still have a long way to do that.
