Liquid

Liquid and Azure DevOps

Liquid is a digital governance service used inside of Microsoft. Along with providing the authoritative repository for many company-wide policies and requirements, it also provides a platform for helping manage the work associated with meeting these requirements. When assessing the state of compliance for our products and service, one of the data sources Liquid uses is work items from Azure DevOps. Some of these are work items generated by the One Compliance DevOps extension, but many are not.

Because each DevOps project is different, we onboard individual projects and setup configuration rules for each project. The Liquid DevOps extension provides quick and easy access to organization-wide and project-level information about what projects and work items types are connected to Liquid. Additionally, you can drilldown to see the specific rules Liquid uses when processing data from these projects and work items.

The Liquid extension is also how you get your organization/projects connected to Liquid so our service can read
your work items to calculate compliance state and other measures.

Getting Started

It's pretty simple. Just install this extension in your DevOps instance and then go to either Organization Settings (to see information about all projects) or Project Settings to see information about a specific project.

If you haven't yet onboarded your projects to Liquid, go to Organization Settings and you'll see an option to onboard where you can pick the projects and work items that Liquid will process. If you're already onboarded, you can request changes to this information.

We're in Preview

This is a preview of the extension -- we're looking for feedback about improvements and may invest in additional capabilities based on customer and partner feedback.
