Azure DevOps Template Folders
I use DevOps User Story Templates quite a lot in my org. The problem is that we have over 50 user story templates. Is it possible to create a folder structure where I can add multiple templates to a folder to clean this up? Thanks

I don’t believe Azure DevOps work item templates support folders today. They are managed by team and work item type, so the practical workaround is a naming convention like Finance - Story, Ops - Story, or splitting templates across teams if ownership is clear. You can also keep template links on a dashboard/wiki for easier discovery.
Azure DevOps does not provide functionality for organizing work item templates into a folder structure. All templates are maintained in a flat list within the project, with no native capability to group or categorize them. The supported management actions are limited to creating, editing, deleting, and applying templates.
