How do I show/render a custom field(e.g Text) on Azure Work Item Form using Azure Extension.
Referring to Microsoft official documentation, here are few things I have tried.
1.My Azure extension project folder structure looks like below:
|-- my-hub.html
|-- node_modules
|-- @types
|-- azure-devops-extension-sdk
|-- package.json
|-- vss-extension.json
2.Below is the "vss-extension.json" file containing necessary changes for showing up tab, group and fields on azure work item.

Note: - Both I and II are different approaches tried by me for achieving same purpose. But None worked.
3.Below are the problems I am facing: -
- When I install the extension, I am able to see Page (Tab) and Group on Azure work Item. Whereas I can't see any field on work item. Instead, I get an error on azure group and tab saying "my-practice-extension Extension by Anirudha Yeola Failed to load".
In Browser Console window I am getting errors in following sequence: - (Please refer to the screenshot)
- Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()
- POST https://dev.azure.com/zaahme/_apis/WebPlatformAuth/SessionToken 500 (Internal Server Error)
- Error: Cannot get registered instance for: AnirudhaYeola.mydemoextension.sample-group
- TFS.WebApi.Exception: InvalidUserId
4.Did anybody face the same problem or similar kind of behavior? I would appreciate for the help dear community.
