The TFS4JIRA Synchronizer is able to synchronize TFS / Azure DevOps (formerly VSTS) "Tree path" fields (i.e. "area paths" and "iteration paths") using specialized synchronization methods.
Three modes of synchronization are available, as shown in screenshot below:
- Copy full TFS tree path copies the whole path from TFS / Azure DevOps field to JIRA Jira field. JIRA
Jira field should be of "Text" type - Copy last part of TFS tree path copies just the last part of the path (after the last
"\"character).
This can be used to automatically synchronize TFS / Azure DevOps sprints to JIRA Jira versions, provided that JIRA Jira version names are the same as TFS sprint names - Map values can be used for versatile mapping of TFS / Azure DevOps tree paths to any of the JIRA Jira "mappable" type.
This will typically be used to map TFS / Azure DevOps iteration path to JIRA Jira sprints and TFS / Azure DevOps are apaths paths to JIRA Jira components, but it can also be used to map TFS / Azure DevOps sprints to JIRA Jira versions or to any other "mappable" field. In case of mapping of sprints, TFS / Azure DevOps workitems with no iteration path will be synchronized to JIRA Jira issues not assigned to any sprint. JIRA issues from the backlog (without a sprint assigned) will be synchronized to TFS work items with iteration path set to the root of the tree path.
