New directive : bypassrule

[adu80]

Hello,

In a rule, have possibility to specify this directive :
.bypassrule=true

In this case, when a workitem is update, the process rules are ignored.

Thank you.

Can you elaborate your scenario more? I can easily imagine one of the following two scenarios and the solution using existing features:

1. you do not want trigger a rule for a specific event -- disable or remove the mapping in the DevOps Project
2. you want to disable a rule altoghether -- disable the rule using Aggregator CLI or any Azure interface like Portal, Az CLI etc.

Looking forward for your reply

Sorry I didn't explain myself well, I talk about the possibility to use the parameter bypassRules in this method. So, we can update a workitem and Azure DevOps process rules can be ignored.

In my case, I made a mandatory field but in tfsaggregator I want to update a workitem without being obliged to fill it in (this must be done by the user).

I see: adding backlog labels

should this be an option or always valid?

BUT: Having this Option set to true, the provided PAT needs to have the appropriate permission to bypass rule validation (see also #74).

I understand your point of view, but as you say, if it's always valid, it means giving an additional right all the time, which managers may not want ?
I'm divided. Personally, I wouldn't mind if it was still activated.
