New fields bring Kanban goodness to queries, and more

This post introduces three new system fields: 'Board Column', 'Board Column Done', and 'Board Lane'. These fields capture data directly from the Kanban board and are now available for use in Queries, Charts, and Alerts within Azure DevOps. This enables users to report on Kanban board metrics directly from the query editor, group charts by 'Board Column' for better visualization, and set up alerts based on the status of work items on the Kanban board (e.g., notifying when a story moves to 'under development'). The post also mentions the availability of these fields in Excel for read-only export and the introduction of Project Dashboards that can be configured without team association, supporting cross-team tracking and special project dashboards. The Chart Widget now supports grouping by tags.
