|
My data looks different than I expected | Some items are moving backwards in your workflow | Here is how ActionableAgile handles backwards movements: how ActionableAgile handles work that moves backwards in the workflow. |
| Expecting the app to pull from the individual item history. | Our app uses the project specific analytics service provided by Microsoft. This means that item history not related to that project may not appear in the analytics. |
| A filter is applied | If you see a green funnel on the left of the top bar, it means that there is at least 1 filter set, you can hover over it to see the list of the filter and where they were applied. You can either found them and reset the filter or clear your browser storage which will delete all settings. |
ActionableAgile is not showing some items | The default area path is nested | You can check what is your defaulted area path in your Project Settings > Team configuration > Area > default This means that items not nested may not appear in the analytics. |
ActionableAgile is not showing some items | The work item has changed either board or team | ActionableAgile currently only queries historical data from the board you are loading. It does not import historical data from when a work item was previously in a different board or team. There is currently no work around but we do plan on improving the data loading experience and supporting cross-team/board movements. |

Issues Managing Users in my Subscription
Your Problem | The Potential Cause | Suggested Solutions |
---|---|---|
Name says “User Not Found” and Email is a long string
| The user manager can “recognize” only those who have access to the area you’re in when you pull up the user manager. These users may be valid users in another organization or users in this organization that only have access to other areas of the Azure. | No workarounds to get all users to appear at the same time. However, their name will appear when you go to manage users in an area they do have appropriate access to.
|
The user has access but as a stakeholder. | Provide basic access to users who will be using ActionableAgile. Stakeholders do not have access to the Azure analytics service. |
