Push to Azure DevOps from Visual Studio with Agile Process as Default

Question

I connected Azure DevOps to Visual Studio and when I press "Publish Git Repo" everything is working fine.

But it always creates a Scrum process Dashboard. I made Agile as default and disabled all of the others in my organisation.

Now Visual Studio throws this error

VS403119: You cannot add a team project with process Scrum as it is disabled. Either choose a different process, or enable process Scrum and try again.

So it means the setting is somewhere in Visual Studio.

The only thing I found about it is this two years old question .

Do you know the setting or some config file to change the default process board when publishing to the Azure DevOps from Visual Studio?

Answer 1

Visual Studio always specifies Scrum process when creating Azure Devops project via its Team Explorer, as I know there's no VS settings available to manage this behavior.

As a workaround you can create the project with Agile process in web portal first, add local project/solution into source control and choose Target Project (Click Advanced ) before publishing the repo:

Actually this behavior is VS-specific cause Azure Devops itself supports specifying process template even by Rest API . So I decide to post a feature request related to your requirements in User Voice forum with VS tag instead of Azure Devops tag . The product team would provide the updates if they view it.
