How to Query a Azure DevOps item Tag

Hi there

 

I have a contact email within the tags of each devops workitem. When a dev moves a feature to done. I want to mail that contact.

I can see in Power Automate I can pull out the tags as a whole but I can't see a way to perhaps move those tags into a collection and search for the appropriate tag. Can anyone help?

I have the same question (0)

    Wearsky thanks for comming back to me but I have worked out the solution now. This was my first power automate flow 🙂

    Which Actions did I use

    - Initialise Variable to move the Tags into an array.

    - An Apply to each on the Current Item with a condition if the Current Item contains an "@" symbol send a mail.

    What I missed was you could not take the Tags value (string) into  an Array. Once I found the Compose Action I used this to split the string and it all worked from there.

    Hi @RichardSWilson ,

     

    Could you clarify the requirement?

    - Which actions did you use in your flow?

    - How many tags does each workitem have?

    - Did you get multiple workitems and want to get a collection of their tags(email)?

     

    It would be better if there were some screenshots.

     

    Best Regards,

    Wearsky
