Azure Devops Connector - Create Work Item for Unassigned

Posted on by mnshah

Hello,

My creating a flow which grabs values off of a SharePoint (coming from PowerApps) and creating an work item in Azure DevOps. When I use "Create a work item (Azure DevOps)". Even though I leave the "Assigned To" (under Show Advanced Options) it assigns the task to me.

Gone through this thread: Solved: Re: Azure Devops Connector - Create Work Item for ... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

I have to added "Send a HTTP request to Azure DevOps" after "Create a work item (Azure DevOps)" with the following:
Relative URI: {Project name}/_apis/wit/workitems/$issue?api-version=7.1-preview.3
Headers: Content-Type: application/json-patch+json
Body:
{
"op":"add",
"path":"/fields/System.AssignedTo",
"from":null,
"value":""
}

The error I get is:

"status": 400,

"message": "You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.
Details: {\"$id\":\"1\",\"innerException\":null,\"message\":\"You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.\",\"typeName\":\"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common.VssPropertyValidationException, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common\",\"typeKey\":\"VssPropertyValidationException\",\"errorCode\":0,\"eventId\":3000}",

"error": {

"message": "You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.\
Details: {\"$id\":\"1\",\"innerException\":null,\"message\":\"You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.\",\"typeName\":\"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common.VssPropertyValidationException, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common\",\"typeKey\":\"VssPropertyValidationException\",\"errorCode\":0,\"eventId\":3000}"

"source": "vsts-ce.azconn-ce-001.p.azurewebsites.net"

}

I want to create a work item with the following:
Type: Issue
Description field should have the following data from SharePoint: (Priority, Created By, Email)
Link URL: URL column from SharePoint
Assigned To: null
State: New

Hi @mnshah,

The body seems to be missing the square brackets. Also it looks like you haven't included a Title for your work item. Afaik that property is is required to be able to save a new work item.

Can you try the below as the setup with that Body payload?

URI

@{variables('Project')}/_apis/wit/workitems/$Issue?api-version=7.1-preview.3

Headers

{ "Content-Type": "application/json-patch+json" }

Body

[ { "op": "add", "path": "/fields/System.Title", "from": null, "value": "Sample Issue" }, { "op": "add", "path": "/fields/System.AssignedTo", "from": null, "value": "" } ]

This is what I have now:
[
{
"op": "add",
"path": "/fields/System.Title",
"from": null,
"value": "sample"
},
{
"op": "add",
"path": "/fields/System.AssignedTo",
"from": null,
"value": ""
},
{
"op": "add",
"path": "/fields/System.Description",
"from": null,
"value": "Description: unassigned"
},
{
"op": "add",
"path": "/fields/System.Link URL",
"from": null,
"value": "bi assigned"
}
]

and the error message now:
{
  "status": 400,
  "message": "You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.
Details: {\"$id\":\"1\",\"innerException\":null,\"message\":\"You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.\",\"typeName\":\"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common.VssPropertyValidationException, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common\",\"typeKey\":\"VssPropertyValidationException\",\"errorCode\":0,
  "error": {
    "message": "You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.
Details: {\"$id\":\"1\",\"innerException\":null,\"message\":\"You must pass a valid patch document in the body of the request.\",\"typeName\":\"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common.VssPropertyValidationException, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Common\",\"typeKey\":\"VssPropertyValidationException\",\"errorCode\":0,\
  },
  "source": "vsts-ce.azconn-ce-001.p.azurewebsites.net"
}

Looks like its asking ID to be mentioned. But that's autogenerated right?
