Field mapping

We've suggested a mapping. Review it, then run a dry run to preview exactly what will change in GitHub.

Work item types → GitHub issue types

States

People

Unmapped people are kept as text in each issue. GitHub only assigns people who have access to the repository.

Work item fields

These become real fields you can filter, sort and report on.

Issue fields appear on every issue, in every repository and project. If the organization can't use them (for example a personal account), BoardBridge uses project fields instead and says so in the dry run.

Priority

There's no Priority field yet, so BoardBridge creates one with an option for each priority ("P1" for priority 1, and so on).

Comments and tags

Attachments

Needs no extra permission. People need access to Azure DevOps to open the files.

Needs the Contents: write permission, which lets BoardBridge change files in the repositories you granted it. BoardBridge only writes to the boardbridge-attachments branch, but the permission covers all branches.
This installation hasn't granted Contents: write, so this option is off.

History for sprint reports

Keeps how state, story points, remaining work, iteration and area changed over time, so burndown and velocity charts start with your real history instead of from zero. This is the only work item data BoardBridge stores outside GitHub. It stays in BoardBridge's Azure storage until you delete it.
