Create Azure board card when email received

Question

We are looking at using Azure boards to manage our workload. I am looking at workflow capabilities that you get in other similar tools like Jira. And want to know if it is possible to create a board item automatically when an email is received to a shared mailbox.

looks as though a flow is possible but you seem to need premium “Create an issue in Azure DevOps when an email is received” as we discussed earlier

Answer 1

Looking at the documentation for the Azure DevOps Services REST API, there doesn't seem to be an API for creating workitems.

You could use Azure Logic Apps which have integration with Office 365 and Azure DevOps:

You don't need a premium account, but you do need an account. There are some costs of course, you can find out more about the Pricing model for Azure Logic Apps.
