ADO HELP - "Board Column" - Available in Queries but not in Analytics Views.

Question

Hi

For portfolio reporting, we need the “Board Column” field added as a field option when creating analytics views in ADO. It is available in Queries but not in Analytics Views.

Here is the posted feature request which has been in the status “Under Review” for 2 years - https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/idea/467446/analytics-view-add-board-column-to-list-of-availab-1.html

Do you know what the best path forward is to find out if Microsoft will add this feature in ADO? It would be greatly appreciated!

@Eapen, Sanoj [Slalom] Hello, I just got response from the product group, the feature is still under review since it's a more expensive feature to implement. However, the board column information is available via the Odata feed so the workaround now is users canwork around it using Odata.

Could you please try this and let me know if that meets your requirement? If not, could you please provide more details about your scenario I can help to escalate it to product group.

Thanks.
