To find work items assigned to you or your team, run a query. Many work item queries are predefined with your process. Members of your team may have created shared queries that you can view and run. Often, it's easier to define a new query by building on the query definition that's already available to you.
The Queries page, as with other web portal pages, remembers the view you last navigated to and returns you to that view.
From the Team Explorer Work Items, page, open the context menu for the query (right-click with your mouse), and choose View Results. Or, double-click the query to open it.
Note
You can't add folders to My Favorites or Team Favorites.
The Work Items page displays the same folder structure as defined in the web portal. Changes you make through Visual Studio are reflected in the web portal.
You can expand and collapse folders, rename folders, and drag and drop queries from one folder to another. To learn more, see Manage and organize queries
From the Query Editor or Results view, you can email a formatted list of query items or copy the query URL.
You can email a formatted query list by choosing the Send to Microsoft Outlook option from the context menu.
Note
This feature requires you to have Microsoft Outlook installed. For on-premises Azure DevOps, all email actions require an SMTP server to be configured. If you don't have an SMTP server configured, you can work around this by using Copy as HTML from the web portal.
