Canvas app with Azure DevOps work item Area Path input from a datasource

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I'm wanting to put an input control a screen that is used to input an ADO Area Path. I'm thinking that something as similar to the actual Area Path input on the work item UI would be ideal but I'm flexible. I tried working with the DevOps connector as a data source but it seems limited in its capabilities.

 

The levels of area path are stored as individual column values

e.g., contoso\work\dev would be PathLevel1:contoso, PathLevel2:work, PathLevel3:dev.

 

This schema allows for modular concatenation of the desired depth of child path levels but I could also pivot and store every possible combination. Alternately I could call the API but that seems like it would be cumbersome.

 

I honestly don't even know where to start with this or what control would be correct. The native experience is a text search + dropdown with suggestions. You start typing contoso and \work as well as \work\dev are suggested.

 

Is there any way to accomplish this?

 

Thanks!
