In Azure DevOps on-premises (XML process template), we can specify only particular group of users allowed to do perform state transition from particular state to another. Ex=> Transition from "Active" to "On Hold" state allowed only for the "Business Analyst" user group. In Azure Devops services (inherited process model), we don’t have any option to restrict state transition based on the groups(roles) when transition from one state and another by using rules. Please let us know how to achieve this in Azure DevOps Services(cloud).
Below is the scenario:
Business analyst group => "Active" to "On Hold" (only business analyst group users allowed to change the state from "Active" to "On Hold")
TechLead group => "Development" to "On Hold" (only TechLead group users allowed to change the state from "Active" to "On Hold")
Business analyst group => "Deployment" to "on Hold" (only business analyst group users allowed to change the state from "Active" to "On Hold")
