What Unito syncs from Azure DevOps
Unito syncs epics, tasks, issues, test plans, test cases, features, user stories, product backlog items, impediments, bugs, and custom item types from Azure DevOps projects by linking individual fields form these work items to items in other tools (e.g., Trello cards, Jira issues, ServiceNow records).
Supported fields for Azure DevOps work items
Unito supports 33 fields for Azure DevOps. Here’s a list of these fields as well as supported sync directions and rules.
Quick definitions:
- One-way: Changes in this field can be synced to the tool it’s integrated with, but changes in the other tool can’t be synced back.
- Two-way: Changes to this field will be synced to the tool it’s integrated with, and changes in the other tool will be synced back.
- Rules: This field can be used to build rules.

Additional features
Unito's Azure DevOps integration also supports the following features:
- Attachments: Unito can copy attachments to and from Azure DevOps work items, meaning the whole file will be available in any synced work item as long as it's mapped to an attachment field in your other tool. You can also stream attachments to the description footer of the other tool, adding a clickable link for anyone in the other tool to view it without logging in to ADO.
