I've serveral flows using a Azure Devops Operation called "Update a Work Item".
It allows you to manipulate tags on a work item; in the dropdown menu you can choose "remove", "replace" and "append".
This morning I noticed that tags weren't being removed when they should, so I did some testing:
- The flows run fine, other actions within the same flow are handled as designed.
- If I append a new tag with the flow, it works fine and the item receives a new tag.
- When I change the operation from "append" to "remove" and run the exact same flow again, the tags are not removed.
- I tried rebuilding this operation from scratch, but the result was the same.
- It seems to be affecting several different flows where tags are supposed to be removed.
- Two days ago these flows were running fine without problems. They've been untouched in that time.
- The syntax in the tags-field is not the problem
Weirdly, it looks like the builtin operation for devops is broken, not my flow.
So I'm wondering if I'm the only one affected by this, or if anyone has had any similar problems.
This is part of the raw input:
"host": {
"connectionReferenceName": "shared_visualstudioteamservices",
"operationId": "UpdateWorkItem"
},
"parameters": {
(...)
"type": "Feature",
"workItem/dynamicFields/System.Tags": "[done]",
"workItem/dynamicFields/Vsts.TagsAction": "Remove"
The output shows the done-tag still present:
(...)
"System_Tags": "[done]; [IMP];
