Frequently asked questions about Azure DevOps and Freshservice
Unito’s Freshservice connector works with service requests, so the trigger is a service request rather than an incident. One that matches your rules, such as a status, assignee or tag, can create a linked Azure DevOps work item that then stays in sync.
Freshservice priority values map to Azure DevOps priority field values one-to-one. Define the mapping once per flow. SLA stays owned by Freshservice; engineering sees the priority context.
Yes. Flow rules decide whether private notes sync at all, and where they land in Azure DevOps. Public replies sync to public reply fields. Internal notes can be excluded or kept as private discussion.
Bidirectional. Title, description, state and assignee on Azure DevOps work items sync two-way, and each field’s direction is set separately from which tool can create new items. For most connectors, new comments carry across; edits to already-synced comments don’t.
Yes, by type: text to text, number to number, date to date, and most types can fall back to a text field. On Azure DevOps that covers types like Picklist, Boolean, Integer and Datetime. Each mapping runs one-way or two-way; some are forced one-way by tool limits.
Yes. Comments and attachments sync between Freshservice service requests and Azure DevOps work items. For most connectors, new comments carry across but edits to earlier ones don’t. Synced comments post under the flow builder’s account by default, with the original commenter’s name shown.
