Ways to provide read only views of subsets of DevOps work items


I use Azure DevOps to track work items and bugs for a project. I'd like to grant certain people external to the project a read-only view of work items that are related to them (eg. tagged Person X), but without having to grant them access to DevOps. I have been toying with the idea of setting up a flow in Power Apps to continuously update a shared excel spreadsheet based on work items in DevOps, but I fear I might be missing easier/better options. How would you provide a limited read-only view of a backlog to externals?

  • I'd like to grant certain people external to the project a read-only view of work items that are related to them (eg. tagged Person X), but without having to grant them access to DevOps.

    For this issue , I am afraid that this is unachievable in azure devops. At present, there is no such permission setting in azure devops to restrict external people can only read work items with specified tag.
