Use data from urls as the suggested values of a multivalue control

How to get started

Visual Studio Team Services

Navigate to your work item form customization page and add a rest multivalue control.

Edit the control so it can use the right field to store your selection and the right url/property combination to be displayed. For example

https://<account>.visualstudio.com/<project>/_apis/build/definitions?api-version=3.0

name

How to query

The selected values are stored in a semicolon separated format. To search for items that have a specific value use the "Contains Words" operator. If searching for multiple values, use multipe "Contains Words" clauses for that field.
