How about  Azure DevOps Java SDK?

Add Azure DevOps SDK Dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.microsoft.azure</groupId>
    <artifactId>azure-devops-java-sdk</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Authenticate with Azure DevOps:

  • You will need a Personal Access Token (PAT) to authenticate with Azure DevOps. You can generate a PAT from your Azure DevOps account.

Fetch Projects, Iterations, and Work Items:

  • Use the SDK to interact with Azure Boards. Here is an example of how you can fetch projects, iterations, and work items:
    import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.core.CoreHttpClient;
import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.work.WorkHttpClient;
import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.workitemtracking.WorkItemTrackingHttpClient;
import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.core.models.TeamProjectReference;
import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.work.models.TeamSettingsIteration;
import com.microsoft.azure.devops.v5_1.workitemtracking.models.WorkItem;

import java.util.List;

public class AzureBoardsIntegration {

    private static final String ORGANIZATION_URL = "https://dev.azure.com/your_organization";
    private static final String PAT = "your_personal_access_token";

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        CoreHttpClient coreClient = new CoreHttpClient(ORGANIZATION_URL, PAT);
        WorkHttpClient workClient = new WorkHttpClient(ORGANIZATION_URL, PAT);
        WorkItemTrackingHttpClient witClient = new WorkItemTrackingHttpClient(ORGANIZATION_URL, PAT);

        // Fetch projects
        List<TeamProjectReference> projects = coreClient.getProjects().getValue();
        projects.forEach(project -> System.out.println("Project: " + project.getName()));

        // Fetch iterations for a specific project
        String projectId = "your_project_id";
        List<TeamSettingsIteration> iterations = workClient.getTeamIterations(projectId, "your_team_id").getValue();
        iterations.forEach(iteration -> System.out.println("Iteration: " + iteration.getName()));

        // Fetch work items
        List<WorkItem> workItems = witClient.getWorkItems("your_query").getValue();
        workItems.forEach(workItem -> System.out.println("Work Item: " + workItem.getFields().get("System.Title")));
    }
}
