VSTS API : create bug in current iteration

0
votes

I am able to successfully create a bug in VSTS using REST API via powershell. See this question for some back story.

But how do I specify it to create the bug in the current iteration ? Do I have to find out what is the current iteration prior to providing the path ? Is there no way to just directly create it in the current iteration ?

Please note that this question is about Create Work Item API, whereas the question mentioned here is about the Iteration API.

Actually those are two different questions. The other question is asking about the List Iterations API whereas this one is asking about the Create Work Item API. – dparkar

There isn’t such feature in VSTS build, the workaround is that you can update the related work item through web hook.

  1. Build a api project (e.g. ASP.NET web api) to update work item per to build id (Get build’s work item through Get Build Work Items Refs rest api)
  2. Create a web hooks with build completed event, set Failed status in Filters
  3. Specify that url of your API app.
