Summary
This post announces updates to Azure Boards in sprint 170. It details improvements to Kanban board error handling by making error messages clickable links to view the cause. It also adds parent filtering to the task board and task backlog, allowing users to filter by parent work items (Features/Epics). Additionally, the GitHub action for creating Azure Boards work items from GitHub Issues is now generally available. Finally, a private preview for state transition restriction rules in inherited processes is announced, allowing for more granular control over work item state changes.
