Visual Studio Online - Move to Iteration

Since the March 10, 2015 release we are no longer able to move Visual Studio work items en masse to a future iteration?  The only option we see are backlog and current?  Did the introduction of the @CurrentIteration token introduce this defect?

  • Does Visual Studio Online support filtering Product Backlog/Sprint Views and Kanban by Area?

    There seems to be guidance out there now that suggests using one Master Team Project (with Areas and Iterations for partitioning) for everything rather than a Team Project per Application/Solution as the 'out of the box' product sort of steers you towards.
    If this guidance is valid, and I've heard that Microsoft use this approach internal, then is it possible to follow this guidance when using Visual Studio Online?
    I ask because it appears that in order to follow the 'Master Team Project' approach you need to be able to filter various elements of the TFS UI by Area and Iteration in order to allow a discrete view of just the material relating to one 'logical' application,
    team, etc.
    Whilst I see how on-premise TFS can do some of this, I can't see any obvious way to do this with Visual Studio Online - and I'm new to that particular product so accept I may have missed something.
    So my question is, can you follow the 'Master Team Project' approach if using Visual Studio Online and if so could someone steer me in the right direction please?
    Thanks

    Hi  RedDwarf62,
    Visual Studio Online(formerly Team Foundation Service) is a cloud-based service. When work with it, you can take it as TFS but no infrastructure to manage. You can follow the guide to work with Visual Studio Online.
    To have mulpitle Applications/Solutions in one team project or use a team project for each application depends on you and the relationship between solutions/projects. If the solutons/applications has refences each other, it would be better to include
    them in the same team project. 
    Working within a single Team Project also has its benefits. You can check this blog for more informaiton:

  • Visual Studio Online Build Failure - Unable to copy file, access to directory is denied

    Hi,
    I have an ASP.Net Web Site that compiles and builds with no errors on my local machine.
    However when I attempt to build the site using default build definitions/configurations within Visual Studio Online and deploy to an Azure Website / App Service I receive the following errors:
    C:\a\src\House of Canine\HouseOfCanine_1_.metaproj: Unable to copy file "C:\a\src\House of Canine\HouseOfCanine\Bin\AjaxControlToolkit.dll" to "HouseOfCanine\\Bin\AjaxControlToolkit.dll". Access to the path 'HouseOfCanine\\Bin\AjaxControlToolkit.dll' is denied.
    Where, I assume, the directory "C:\a\src\House of Canine..." refers to the Visual Studio Online Directory and the directory "HouseOfCanine\\Bin\Ajax..." refers to the Azure Website directory. 
    This error is repeated for a number of other .dll files in the Bin folder and if I look at the diagnostics tab for the failed build on VSO, I can see that it is where it attempts to copy the binaries to the "drop" where the error fails.
    Any advice much appreciated,
    Ross
    Update
    MSBuild Error Code: MSB3021
    It seems the permissions are not set correctly for the DLLs in the Bin folder however I cannot change the permissions of the files on Visual Studio Online. Any ideas?

  • Visual Studio Online incorrectly assigns stakeholder licenses to MSDN subscribers

    We recently added on our Active Directory for Visual Studio Online. This has caused numerous challenges including a few folks with valid MSDN subscriptions stilling showing as stakeholders and thus preventing the ability to check in code. This has become
    so disruptive we started scaling licenses in Azure to be able to check in code.
    When I log into msdn.microsoft.com, I see the below error text.

  • Visual Studio Online can send you back to zero with one simple mistake.

    I was recently motivated by Microsoft team to move my code from other cloud services to Azure. I found out that it was very easy to make changes to the code using visual studio online until I lost all my code today and Microsoft team was unable to help me. 
    When you click git section and further click on 'intialize git' it brings all your code into a git, in case you don't like that and want to go back the moment you'll click 'undo all' you'll lose everything you have. I believe when someone clicks undo all
    the code must go back to explore where it initially was.
    I know many of you would think of me as a noob but there are millions like me who are not very familiar with visual studio online and if I've lost my code someone else might too. Only coders know what it means when you loose a live web app which has hundreds
    of beta testers on it. 

    i'm very sorry to hear that. I saw your tweet and provided my email address - I'd like to see if there's anything I can do to help.
    Also, if you haven't already, try a disk recovery tool to retrieve deleted files before (hopefully) they are overwritten in case we cannot come up with anything else.

  • Visual studio online - Excel power query usage and samples needed

    Background
    Visual Studio Online does not offer much in the way of reporting, when compared to (onsite) TFS... unless you utilize the REST API functionality.
    The Visual Studio Online REST API is fairly extensive, but not very 'reporting' friendly to applications like Microsoft Excel.
    Question
    Are there any good examples of Microsoft Excel Power Query usage - to acquire and create reports via the Visual Studio Online REST API?  I've searched - but surprisingly haven't found anything of substance.  It is fairly simple to call a VSO REST
    query using Excel Power Query, but not so simple to iterate through the lists within lists, etc... unless you are familiar with 'M language'.

    Hi,
    Thank you for reaching out to us. I am currently researching to gather more information with regards to your request. I shall revert back to you with an update at the earliest. Sincerely appreciate your patience.

  • Release management with Azure and Visual Studio Online (Cloud TFS)

    What strategy would you use to manage the releasing of versioned software to Azure cloud services (web and worker roles)? We are not looking for continuous integration. We are using Visual Studio 2013 and Visual Studio Online (Cloud TFS).
    At one point, we were releasing straight from Visual Studio using the Azure Cloud Project Publish tool. This is really bad practice in my opinion as you can never be sure what you are really releasing. Additionally, there is no automated control on the labeling
    or branching of code, or the running of unit tests and code analysis checks.
    Next, we employed Release builds on Visual Studio Online. Before deployment, one would edit the appropriate Build Definition (whether it be for Test or Production by and filling in the code label (under the "Get Version" build property) that is to
    be released. This would then get the appropriate code (by the label specified), build it, and release it to whatever cloud service is specified in the targeted Cloud Project profile (this is using the AzureContinuousDeployment.11.xaml template).
    There is still a degree of manual intervention involved. Also, the fact that a version of code is built every time before it is released is not ideal (as far as I understand it would be better if it was packaged once).
    Microsoft Release Management tools
    look ideal for the job, but are not supported with Visual Studio Online.
    Is there a better way of handling our releases?

    /waves hand.. These are not the tools you seek. You are looking for continuous integration.
    Although CI has the word continuous in there, it does not mean "all the time, every checkin". It can easily refer only to those bits you want to release - -and the way to tell the system which bits you want released is to merge them to a Releases
    branch.
    If you do this, not only do you get all the joy of controlled CI, but you guarantee what you release is exactly what is controlled in your SCM - under the Releases branch, preferably tagged or otherwise noted as a particular release. That means you can also
    rollback to a previous release by simply reverting to a previous release in your SCM!
    Of course you don't have to let it happen automatically, you can set it up to build 'continually' and then remove the check on the SCM to see if any changes have been committed. You can replace this with the manual build button.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi Richie42,
    I'd like to know whether you can push the commits to remote git repository, and when this issue occurred. When work with Git team project in Visual Studio Online, you have to clone the Git repository to local, and work with it.
    You can also check if your have permissions to this team project in security page of team web access. Or
    run
    tfssecurity command in VS command line to have a check. Please execute tfssecurity /imx “MS account” /collection:url, for more information about tfssecurity /imx, please refer to:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms400806.aspx
    Another option is clean team foundation cache, delete credentials in credential manager and delete browser cookies. Restart the Visual Studio to have a try. If the issue persists, please elaborate more details about your scenario with the reproduce steps.

  • Can I give our AD users access to Visual Studio Online?

    Our AD is connected to our Azure Active Directory and synced via DirSync.
    Is it possible for me to give our AD users access to VSO and they use their organizational login credentials OR do they need to create Microsoft accounts?
    Our goal is single sign-on with our AD credentials. Please let me know if this is possible?
    Thanks, Sam

    Hi Sam,
    You can link your Visual Studio Online account with your Azure Activy directoy. Directory administrators control who joins the directory and has possible access to your Visual Studio Online account. The users can use Azure Active directory accounts
    to sign in Visual Stduio Online account. You can check this
    page for more information about manage organization access for your account.
    The numbers of users can access Visual Studio Online account depend on your license of Visual Studio Online account. You can add no more then 5 basic users and unlimited MSDN subscriptions if you have Basic license of Visual Studio Online account. Check
    this
    page for the pricing. However, you can assign team members stakeholder license if the users only view the project-level information. Check this
    page for more information about stakeholder license of Visual Studio Online.

  • Remove test run from Load Test Manager in Visual Studio Online Load Testing

    I have been using the Visual Studio Online Azure load testing for a while now, and I have a number of test runs that I would like to remove.  I am not referring to my local Load Test Results Store (on-premise SQL DB), as I can remove test runs no problem.
     I mean, how to remove them from "the cloud" so we can no longer re-download the test results.  

    Hi David,
    As far as I know, it's not supported for Visual Studio Online to run load tests for solutions hosted on GitHub. You can submit a user voice

    Hi diakoniaus,
    For the situation, you can check if you have the need permissions to access the team project in Visual Studio Online.
    To make sure the permission of your credential, we can run tfssecurity command in VS command line to have a check. Please execute
    tfssecurity /imx “MS account” /collection:url, for more information about tfssecurity /imx, please refer to:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms400806.aspx 
    If you have the corresponding, you can also have a try on other machines to see if it works for you. Or you can clean team foundation cache, delete cookies in browser and delete the credentials that saved in credential manager. Then reconnect to the team
    project via VS 2010. You can check the troubleshooting details in this

  • Application Insights for load testing in VS 2013, Azure Preview or Visual Studio Online?

    I'm trying to get some clarification on which version of application insights to use to get performance counters from application insights for my azure cloud service for load and performance testing purposes. 
    So far, its not be clear what the differences between the two versions are, after deploying first the Azure Preview version, I attempted to set up performance counters using application insights but was shown an error because my visual studio online account
    did not have an associated application insights instance. 
    Is it possible to get performance counters using AI for load testing using the Azure Preview version? If so, how? If not, is that planned as a new feature or will performance counters for VSO cloud based load testing have to be used when support for the
    VSO version of application insights is eventually dropped? 
    Thanks, 
    Luke

    Hi Alex, thanks for your response. I do have an Azure account, and have tinkered with AI in Azure Preview. My question was more about what the differences between the VSO and azure preview versions of AI are. 
    When I initially deployed AI to the azure portal and tried to run load tests from visual studio (cloud load tests, that is) I could not. Its possible I had made a mistake in configuring the azure version of application insights though. Strangely enough,
    I actually do still see application insights data in the azure preview portal after I removed the newer AI version and installed AI 1.3. 
    To clarify my question, is it or will it be possible to run cloud based load tests (using visual studio online or another integrated service) against a azure web role deployed with application insights for azure and get performance counters of the system
    under test via AI? To do that, will I also have an application insights application in the visual studio online account (similar to how I do now with the VSO version of AI), because that seems to be a requirement to load performance counters from application
    insights within visual studio. 
    Thanks and sorry if I misunderstood your answer.
