Generate notes between two builds automatically

[Alexandre-NAUD]

Hi,

We use scrum and 4 weeks sprint for our project. At the end of a sprint, we made a release branch tagged with version like '1.0.1', '1.0.2'... and we would like to generate release notes between last release branch and sprint n-1 release branch.

I fear that might not be possible, I can't remember of the top of my head if the AZDO API allows you to get the differences between two pipeline runs on different branches

To test it I would do the following

• Set checkstages=true
• Set the overrideBuildReleaseId=1234 where the number of the pipeline run ID for the 1.0.1 run

You would need to update the overrideBuildReleaseId variable each sprint, but that should be the only manual operations

Let me know how it goes

Hi,

It works correctly between 2 releases but not between 2 builds. If I use buildID with checkstages=true, and 2 builds with just some works items, it take severals minutes to get results and return hundreds of WI.

Yes, volume of associated items can be a problem, hope you find what returns useful
