Azure DevOps

The Azure DevOps connector imports pull requests, commits and code review activity from your Azure DevOps Git repositories so your delivery and review metrics reflect real repository activity.

This page covers the Azure DevOps source code (Repos) connector — pull requests, commits and reviews. Work items, iterations and other planning data come from the separate Azure DevOps Boards connector.

Authentication

Logilica connects to Azure DevOps using OAuth. Authorise Logilica through Azure DevOps and Logilica reads your repository data using the granted access token. Logilica only reads the relevant data and never stores your password.

Prerequisite: your organisation must allow third-party application access via OAuth (Organization Settings > Policies > Application connection policies).

See Connecting Tools for the general installation flow.

What's Imported

For each connected repository, Logilica imports:

• Pull requests — title, description, author, source/target branch, created and closed timestamps, and the merger

• Commits on each pull request, including author, committer, commit message and authored/committed times

• Comments and review threads — including the files inline comments apply to

• Approval votes — who approved and when

• Changed-file counts — the number of files changed in the pull request

• Contributor identities — display name and email for every author, reviewer, committer and merger, used for identity resolution and team assignment

How Logilica Maps the Data

Pull request state

Logilica tracks each pull request through its lifecycle — open, reviewed, approved, merged or closed — combining Azure DevOps status with review activity.

Review lifecycle

Logilica captures who reviewed each pull request, which files they reviewed, approvals, and review timing from Azure DevOps comment threads and approval votes.

Linking pull requests to tickets

Logilica recognises issue keys in commit messages, pull request titles and branch names to connect code changes to planning work. See Linking Pull Requests and Tickets for how this works and how to format references.

Good to Know

• Kept in sync automatically. After the initial import, Logilica refreshes this connection on a regular schedule — you don't need to re-trigger imports.

• Releases are not imported from this connector. Release detection for DORA on Azure DevOps relies on other sources such as build data or pull request patterns. See Release Detection and DORA Configuration.

• Comments are used for metrics, not stored verbatim. Logilica records reviewers and which files were reviewed.

• Build data is not yet imported by this connector. CI/CD metrics on Azure DevOps come from separately supported build sources — see Connecting Tools and the Build dashboard.
