AZURE DEVOPS DASHBOARD WIDGETS

Dashboards

One chart. Your query. Right on the dashboard.

Bring WIQL-driven work item charts and pipeline health to your Azure DevOps dashboard. Configure one focused chart per card, using the same query settings as Monitor.

PUT IT TO WORK

Work item charts and pipeline health

Illustrative examples to help you choose the right workflow for your team.

01

Chart the work that matters

Choose fields, operators and values to build a project-scoped WIQL query. Preview the generated query before saving.

Group by state, work item type, area or iteration. Choose bar, line, doughnut, pie, polar area or radar; stack a bar chart by a second dimension. Snapshot charts count up to 1,000 of the most recently changed matching work items.

02

See daily progress

Switch to historical data for line or stacked bar charts over 7 to 365 days. Trends use Azure DevOps Analytics daily snapshots and require Analytics access.

Each widget saves its own title, filters, grouping and chart type. Resize the card in your dashboard; the chart stays inside its frame. Refresh to retrieve current data.

03

Watch pipeline reliability

Review the latest plotted runs, their average duration, and total runtime.

Current pipeline health card with twenty plotted runs, duration bars, totals, and an average line

Example data, captured from the current pipeline card. Green bars show succeeded runs, red bars show failed or partially successful runs, and gray bars show cancellations.

04

Track build activity

Example: see how often your main pipeline completes.

Main pipeline · 24 hours12runs

Completed runs

All completed outcomes included

Choose Completed runs and 24 hours. Queued and running builds are excluded. Add another card with a longer window to compare activity over time.

05

Understand time spent running

Example: total the duration of recent pipeline runs.

Validation pipeline · 7 days150.0min

Total pipeline run time

10 runs averaging 15 minutes in this example

Choose Total pipeline run time and 7 days. The headline sums run durations; it is not an average. The history bars show the latest 20 run durations, regardless of the headline metric.

GET STARTED

Set up in Azure DevOps

Add a Work item chart for WIQL-based reporting or a Pipeline health card for build metrics. Both use your existing Azure DevOps access and read data without changing work items or builds. Chunk Suite is not required.
