Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

The entity types and entity sets listed in the following table can be used to filter and build reports based on Analytics data.

EntitySet EntityType Description
Dates CalendarDate The dates used to filter and group other entities using relationships.
Projects Project Projects defined for an organization (cloud) or project collection (on-premises).
Users User User information that is used to expand or filter various work item properties, for example Assigned To, Created By.

Note

Descriptions of the entities, properties, and enumerated types supported by the Analytics data model are provided. This is an early draft. Please provide feedback on areas you would like to have more information. To query the data model, see Construct OData queries for Analytics.

Year Year Int32 The year, such as 2019, 2020, 2021 and so on.

By default, all the snapshot tables are modeled as daily snapshot fact tables. If you query for a time range it will get a value for each day. Long time ranges result in a large number of records. If you don't need such high precision, you can use weekly or even monthly snapshots.

When you aggregate data for a snapshot entity, you should include the DateSK or a DateValue column in a groupby clause as described in the OData query guidelines. For example reports that specify a date filter, see the following articles:
