Limitations of Unito's Azure DevOps Integration

Here's a breakdown of what Unito's Azure DevOps integration can't do yet — and a few other considerations.

Unito's Azure DevOps integration is designed to get crucial data out of your projects and into other tools. You've seen what Unito can do for Azure DevOps users, so this article will cover what it can't do — yet.

Azure DevOps integration limitations

Project support

Unito syncs work items from entire Azure DevOps projects, not individual boards. To sync specific items from specific boards, create a custom single-select field on those boards and use it as a filter in your Unito rules.

Comment editing

When you edit comments in Azure DevOps, these edits won't be synced over to other projects or other tools. That's because Unito only syncs new comments, not any edits to existing comments.

Multip-line text custom fields

Multi-line text in custom fields is only available with certain plans on request in plain text format. This is to prevent any formatting from being erased from the source item when syncing two ways. Contact our team for details.

Other Azure DevOps considerations

Third-party application access

In order for Unito to access your Azure DevOps projects, make sure that your DevOps Organization Policies allow for Third-Party Application access via OAuth. To enable it, go to your Organization page. Then select Organization Settings, scroll down to Policies, and toggle Third-Party Application access via OAuth under Application connection policies.

If you have multiple DevOps organizations, make sure this setting is turned on across all of them.
