Step 2: Project Association

You need to configure Azure project mapping with your Qwiet organization’s application. These configurations are used to create work items in selected projects. This can be accomplished on the Qwiet Applications > Settings page.

Associate Azure project

To associate an Azure project, please follow these steps:

• Select the Organization from the dropdown. It will list all the organizations that you have access to.

• Selecting the organization will allow you to select the Project under that organization.

• After selecting the Project, you can also specify which work item type should be used for creating work items from the dropdown.

• Click Save.

These configurations can be updated later and will be applicable on further finding associations.

Step 3: Assign a finding to Azure Boards

After successful project association, you will get an option on the Qwiet finding's page to assign the finding to Azure Boards. Select any Qwiet finding and click the Assign To Azure button.

Submit finding to Azure

Step 4: Navigating between Azure Boards and Qwiet
