Unable to edit and save WIQL queries

Question

Hi Team,

Up until last week everyone could edit and save WIQL queries, but now we are unable to do in two of our projects in Azure DevOps.

These are the steps I am doing:

1. Click "Queries"
2. Click "New query" button
3. Click the three dots on the top right hand corner.
4. Select "Edit query wiql"
5. Update the query and click "Save Query" button.

Expected Behaviour: The Wiql Query window shall get closed and the query shall get saved.

Actual Behaviour: The Wiql Query window is not getting closed and the query is not saved.

Could you please help understand how to resolve this situation?

Hi @SB ,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

You might be using a third party published Wiql Editor extension which is unpublished and may not work.

Here is the official Wiql Editor link - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-devlabs.wiql-editor.

Firstly, Uninstall the older extension and then click on Get it Free button as in snip below.

It should look like below.
