How can I modify the title of work items in TFS en masse?


I have a Product Backlog Item (PBI) in TFS, which has multiple Sprint Backlog Tasks (SBTs) under it in a grid.

How can I modify the title of the items in that grid without opening each one individually in the preview or otherwise?

Solution

  • It is possible because when selecting a WorkItem, in the half screen on the bottom, you will have its details, and thus can change it. After you re done, you will be able to save all in one Ctrl-S

    Better way :

    I have done that by exporting result of query in MS Excel, modifying multiple columns and rows rapidly; then Publish the whole by one click.
