Azure Devops - Best way to create a burndown chart for an Epic

Hi,

 

What is the best way to create a chart that would should the burndown (or burnup) of Story Points completed on User Stories under one or more Epics?

 

I have never been able to do this within Azure DevOps itself. Have just picked up PowerBi and can't do it there either!

 

Regards

M

    Hello MaseyBoy​ . Like you, I've been frustrated by the out-of-the-box burndown chart's inability to properly handle Epics, Features, and data that spans Projects or Teams. So, I finally decided to write my own ADO dashboard extension widget.

    It's currently in private preview. I'm looking for a small number of ADO Boards users who would like to try it and give me feedback. Please let me know if you are interested.
