在VSTS 2017中更新CreatedBy(System.CreatedBy)workitem字段

我们无法使用rest API更新VSTS 2017中的CreatedBy(System.CreatedBy)workitem字段。用户已添加到“Project Collection Service Accounts”VSTS组,以便在更新工作项时绕过规则。

public WorkItem UpdateWorkItemUsingByPassRules(int id)
    {
        JsonPatchDocument patchDocument = new JsonPatchDocument();

        patchDocument.Add(
            new JsonPatchOperation() { 
                Operation = Operation.Add,
                Path = "/fields/System.CreatedBy",
                Value = "Foo <Foo@hotmail.com>"
            }
        );

        VssConnection connection = Context.Connection;
        WorkItemTrackingHttpClient workItemTrackingClient = connection.GetClient<WorkItemTrackingHttpClient>();

        WorkItem result = workItemTrackingClient.UpdateWorkItemAsync(patchDocument, id, null, true).Result;

        return result;
    }

当validateOnly参数设置为true而不是null时,结果输出将保存更新后的created by值。
