FAQPage Schema
How do I route an Azure DevOps PR link to the correct action?

To route an Azure DevOps PR link, share the URL like https://dev.azure.com/org/project/_git/repo/pullrequest/123 so the Skill can parse the resource and trigger the appropriate pull request action.

Can I use conversational prompts to create or review PRs in Azure DevOps?

Yes, you can use conversational prompts like create PR or review PR to trigger the correct Azure DevOps workflows without needing to share a direct URL.

Do I need the Azure CLI extension to parse Azure DevOps work item links?

Yes, parsing Azure DevOps work item links requires a signed-in Azure CLI with the azure-devops extension, which enables selective use of az devops invoke for REST API access.

Does this routing approach work with both dev.azure.com and visualstudio.com URLs?

Yes, Azure DevOps link routing works with both dev.azure.com and visualstudio.com URL patterns, identifying the referenced PR or work item across both domains.

What happens if the Azure DevOps organization or project cannot be detected?

If the Azure DevOps organization or project cannot be auto-detected, the routing mechanism applies safe fallbacks to ensure the resource action is still handled correctly.

How do I invoke the Azure DevOps REST API to retrieve work item details?

You can invoke the Azure DevOps REST API to retrieve work item details by using az devops invoke, which the Skill uses selectively to access resource data after parsing the URL or prompt.
