Get started managing your project

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015

With most Azure DevOps Services, you can start using the service and configure resources as you go. No up-front work is required. Most settings define defaults.

If you've created a project or been added to the Project Administrators group, you'll want to be familiar with the administrative tasks your charged with. there are a few tasks you might want to do to ensure a smooth operational experience.

Add users to your project

You add users to a team or project so they can contribute to the team and project. Users can be added to multiple teams and projects.

Users that have been added to an organization, can easily be added to a project by adding them to a team or inviting them to contribute to a project.

Team administrators can add users to their team which automatically adds them to the project. By adding users to a team, you make team-specific tools aware of them, such as the team security group, Team Members widget, and sprint capacity planning tools. To learn more about teams, see About teams and Agile tools.

Members of the Project Administrators group can add users to a project. Adding users to a team or project automatically adds them to the project's Contributors group. Members of this group have permissions to most features needed to contribute to work items, code, builds, and releases. For an overview of default permissions, see Default permissions quick reference.

Once users have been added to a project or organization, you can browse for their display name or user name (email alias) from any people-picker tool. Users can connect to a project and access features available through a supported client or the web portal.

Share your project vision

Each project has a summary page that's useful for sharing information through README files. You can use this page to share information relevant to your project. To learn more, see set up your project summary page.

Manage security and permissions

Access to select tasks is controlled by permissions and security groups. To quickly understand the defaults configured for your project, see Default permissions and access.

The following table lists the permissions assigned at the project-level. All of these permissions are granted to members of the Project Collection Administrators group. For a description of each permission, see Permissions and groups reference, Groups.

General

  • Delete team project

  • Edit project-level information

  • Manage project properties

  • Rename team project

  • View project-level information Boards

  • Create tag definition

  • Delete and restore work items

  • Permanently delete work items

Test Plans

  • Create test runs
  • Delete test runs
  • Manage test configurations
  • Manage test environments
  • View test runs

To learn more about security and setting permissions at the project-level, review the following articles:

Add members to the Project Administrators group

The person who creates a project is automatically added as a member to the Project Administrators group. Members of this group have permissions to manage project configuration, repositories, pipeline resources, teams, and all project-level permissions.

It's always a good idea to have more than one person who has administrative privileges. To add a user to this group, see Change permissions at the project level, Add members to the Project Administrators group.

Grant or restrict permissions

Permissions are managed at the following three levels and through role-based assignments.

  • object
  • project
  • organization or collection

As a member of the Project Administrators group, you can grant or restrict permissions for all objects and at the project-level. To delegate specific tasks to others, we recommend that you add them to a built-in or custom security group or add them to a specific role. To learn more, see the following articles.

Review and update notifications

A number of notifications are predefined for each project you add. Notifications are based on subscription rules. Subscriptions arise from the following areas:

If users believe they're getting too many notifications, you can direct them to opt out of a subscription.

Personal notifications

Determine traceability requirements

If you're using most of Azure DevOps Services—Boards, Repos, Pipelines, and Test Plans— you'll want to alert your teams to those features that support end-to-end traceability. To get started, we recommend that you review the following articles:

Set DevOps policies

Set policies to support collaboration across your teams and automatically remove obsolete files. To set policies that govern Azure Repos, Azure Pipelines, and Azure Test Plans, review the following articles:

Configure and customize Azure Boards

You can configure and customize Azure Boards to support a number of business requirements for planning and tracking work. At a minimum, you'll want to configure the following elements:

  • Area paths to group work items by team, product, or feature area
  • Iteration paths to group work into sprints, milestones, or other event-specific or time-related periods.

If you're new to Azure Boards and want an indepth overview of what you can configure and customize, see Configure and customize Azure Boards.

Define area and iteration paths to track work

If you support several products, you can assign work items by feature area by defining area paths. To assign work items to specific time intervals, also known as sprints, you configure iteration paths. To use the Scrum tools—sprint backlogs, taskboards, and team capacity—you need to configure several sprints. For an overview, see About areas and iteration paths.

Customize work-tracking processes

You and your team can start using all work-tracking tools immediately after you create a project. But often, one or more users want to customize the experience to meet one or more business needs. You can customize the process easily through the user interface. As such, you'll want to establish a methodology for who will manage the updates and evaluate requests.

Note

By default, organization owners and users added to the Project Collection Administrators security group are granted permission to create, edit, and manage processes used to customize the work-tracking experience. If you want to lock down who is able to perform these tasks, you can set permissions at the organization-level to Deny.

Integrate with other services

Azure DevOps supports integration with Azure, GitHub, and many other services. As a member of the Project Administrators group, you can configure integration with many of these services. To learn more, see the following articles.

Add teams to scale your project

As your organization grows, we recommend that you add teams to scale your project. Each team gets access to their own set of customizable Agile tools.
