Can code review comments be exported to Excel or some other format?


I need to export the comments made on code reviews along with information about the associated change. The file format is not that important, just need to get the data out of Azure DevOps.

Thanks!

  • As far as I know ,there is no tools or extensions available to export code reviewer comments. Some users have already submitted a uservoice before, you could vote this and Microsoft engineers will evaluate it seriously. https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio

    Other contributors provided a workaround to resolve this issue, you can try to extract the data by using the TFS client object model and put them in Excel using a custom VSTO plugin for Excel or using a package like Excel Package Plus or Aspose Cells to generate the Excel file.

    For details, you can refer to this thread: Using TFS API, how can I find the comments which were made on a Code Review?
