Use an index to query quick reference data in Azure Boards and Azure DevOps

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015 | TFS 2013

Use this index to quickly access example queries and information on opening, defining, and working with queries. To learn how to use the Query Editor, see Define a query. If you find that your queries take too long to return results, review the Guidance to create high-performing queries.

Example queries

You can list work items based on the following criteria...

Operators and macros supported for each data type

The following table indicates the operators and macros available for the different field data types. Each field is associated with a data type. You can find the data type listed in the descriptions of each field, which you can look up using the Work item field index. Operators available for defining a query clause depends on the data type of the field that you select. For more detailed descriptions of data types, operators, and macros, see Query fields, operators, and macros.
