Hello All -

I was attempting to create a new work item in VSO once a new item was created in a SP list using Flow and do not see an option to set the Assigned To field. Am I missing it or do I need to use the API and update it after it was created?

Thanks

Hi JesseMcHargue,

So now have you made it done by using Rest API? It might be an out-of-box feature if you submit it as an idea. I will also suggest other customers who have the same request vote this idea.

Best regards,

Hello -

Yes- Visual Studio Online.

I am attempting to create a User Story work item within a Project and populate it with data from the SharePoint list item.
I would like to set the AssignedTo field within the User Story but I do not see the option within the Flow action.
I am currently doing it via a REST call, but am exploring other options that may exist.

Hi JesseMcHargue,

What do you mean by “VSO”? Is it “Visual Studio Online”?
Do you want to create a flow looks like below, you need a “Assign to field” in the action “Visual Studio Online>Create a new work item”?

But it seems that there is no “Assign to” field can be used. If I understand you correctly, may I suggest you submit an idea at Flow Ideas forum? Other customers who have the same request would vote your idea. The link of Flow Ideas Forum is:
