AzureDevOps - Team board access restrictions.

Question

Maybe someone had an experience of getting team board private particularly for the team members, and no one can get the access to the board (the board is visible as page - but action items are hidden). So that you can publish restricted information for you team mates.

 

I've tried the following:

ADO Settings -> Team configurations -> Areas

however when i restrict the permissions for all other groups

this doesn't work for me.

 

Example:

Employee A, Employee B, Employee C - belong to team "hard employees" - and they want their ADO board be private - to track their daily private activities.

At the same time all of them are part of other different ADO teams - lets say "Hard admins", "Hard super users", etc..

 

When I restrict access to "Hard employees" - for all other teams - including - "Hard admins", "Hard super users". the board is not visible to Employee A, Employee B, Employee C - who belong to team "hard employees". 

Maybe there is any other way to keep privacy.

 

Appreciate your help.
