Work item ID used in destination project breaks Parent/Child work items link. #32

Hi, I've successfully moved all work items and after creating and new team (same as source) and assigned rights all looked good. However, most iterations have an title group called "unparented" and in it are all the unlinked work items. After investigation it seems that the work ID was already used in the destination so a new work ID was created. This breaks the linking, is there a section I missed? If not any programatic way to relink?

I'm getting this as well, @sferg-msft

In today's migration, it created the related link correctly and then deleted it 7min later.

Were you using the latest version when you left this comment? About a month ago I updated link handling due to a change in VSTS.

jdshkolnik commented 6 years ago

Yes. It was latest at time of attempt.

@brmdbr Could you please attach your logs?

@obvioussean Work item number are not in sync with source TFS in VSTS? when I run my query it is returning expected result based on ID order starting from 1 . i am really not sure, since I am trying it for the first time?
