Velocity dashboard widget showing totals for multiple Teams

Copper Contributor

Question: On an Azure DevOps dashboard, is it possible to get the same view as shown by the Velocity dashboard widget, but showing totals for multiple Teams?

 

Background/Detail:

Some of the dashboard widgets that can be added to an Azure Devops dashboard can be configured to show data across multiple team (e.g. the Burndown widget)

 

Other dashboard widgets require selection of a single team (e.g. the Velocity widget).

 

I need to show the same data as a Velocity widget (i.e. totals by iteration, broken down by planned and conpleted) but including WorkItems from multiple teams. I could not find any widget (either built in, or in the marketplace) that allowed this.

 

Is this possible within Azure Devops, without either implementing a new widget, or pulling data into another tool (e.g. Power BI)?

You may be able to solve this by creating a new team under your project settings that includes all users that you need to report on. Then use this "reporting team" for this report.

Never did this specifically...but had to do something similar and it worked.
