How to Enable “New Wiki Experience” for certain users having still legacy wiki UI and links

Question

Some users in our organization are already getting the new Wiki UI (left navigation + ID‑based friendly URLs), but some users, including myself, still get the legacy Wiki UI (right navigation + pagePath‑based URLs).

This inconsistent rollout breaks permalink routing and redirects friendly URLs to the wiki root for affected users.

How to enable the New Wiki Experience feature flag for our entire organization ?

i tried reset account, incognito modes, signout from browser and automatic signin

Hi @Jabbour, Steven ,

Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

The "New Wiki Experience" control lives in Azure DevOps’s preview-features toggles and is a gradual, server-side rollout there isn’t a tenant-wide switch in the Wiki settings today.

1. Ask each affected user to click their user icon (top right) =>Preview Features =>find “New wiki experience” (or “Wiki: modern page editor” depending on your org) =>flip it on =>refresh the page.
2. If you really need to automate it for your entire org, you can script against the Profiles =>Features REST API to set that feature flag for every user (this API isn’t in the main docs, but you can reverse-engineer it from the network calls your browser makes when toggling a preview feature).

Hope this helps!
