    Hi @esuna114 

     

    You can use the send an HTTP request to  Azure DevOps for this. Create a query that lists all the children of a parent or similar and follow this post to retrieve the items: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Community-Blog/Create-Update-Parameterized-Queries-in-Azure-DevOps-with/ba-p/306106

     

    Hope this Helps!
