What is the best way to automate backlog prioritization for Azure Boards?

Automated backlog prioritization for Azure Boards uses defined hierarchies and RICE scoring to classify items by priority, size, and status, streamlining project management and triage without manual ranking.

Can I automatically close a GitHub issue when its local spec is closed?

Yes, bidirectional sync supports closing a GitHub issue automatically when the corresponding local spec is closed, maintaining consistency across development platforms throughout the workflow.

Does the triage process support linking work items across different platforms?

Yes, the triage process supports creating, updating, and linking work items across platforms like GitHub Issues and Azure Boards to manage external trackers efficiently.

How are backlog items classified during automated triage?

During automated triage, backlog items are classified by priority, size, and status using defined hierarchies and RICE scoring to determine severity and importance for efficient management.
