If you have set up an integration between a RapidValue solution and an Azure DevOps project, you can synchronize the data between these two. With this integration you can synchronize RapidValue entities with DevOps work items in both directions. The data is synchronized according to the DevOps mapping setup.
This topic explains how to synchronize a requirement.
If you synchronize a requirement that does:
- Not have a business process or requirement as Parent in DevOps, only the selected requirement is synchronized. In this case you are advised to define the Default parent in the related DevOps mapping setup. Otherwise no DevOps work item is available to which the created work item can be linked.
- Have a business process as Parent in DevOps, its parent business processes, all the way up to the top node in the business process hierarchy, are checked. If a parent business process is not mapped to a work item, a work item is created and mapped to the parent business process. Already mapped parent business processes are not synchronized.
Note: If you use work packages, the work item that is mapped to the parent business process gets the work package work item as the parent. And the work package work item gets the work package group work item as the parent. If the work package group or work package is not mapped to a work item, a work item is created and mapped to the work package group or work package.
- Have a requirement as parent in DevOps, its parent requirement is checked. If a parent requirement is not mapped to a work item, a work item is created and mapped to the parent requirement. Already mapped parent requirements are not synchronized.
If a parent requirement has a parent business process, its parent business processes, all the way up to the top node in the business process hierarchy, are checked. If a parent business process is not mapped to a work item, a work item is created and mapped to the parent business process. Already mapped parent business processes are not synchronized.
Note: If you use work packages, the work item that is mapped to the parent business process gets the work package work item as the parent. And the work package work item gets the work package group work item as the parent. If the work package group or work package is not mapped to a work item, a work item is created and mapped to the work package group or work package.
