string projectSecurityTokenALM = "$PROJECT:" + "vstfs:///Classification/TeamProject/aaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaa";
ISecurityService sec = (ISecurityService)sourceTFS.GetService(typeof(ISecurityService));
var secnames = sec.GetSecurityNamespaces();
List<IdentityDescriptor> ids = new List<IdentityDescriptor>();
foreach (SecurityNamespace sn in secnames)
{
if (sn.Description.DisplayName == "Build")
{

Querying TFS User Access Level via the Object Model
Hi,
I have a requirement to be able to determine the current access level of a TFS user (i.e. Stakeholder, Basic, Advanced) via the object model. Does anyone know how to do this?
I'm aware that the "Export audit log" option in Control Panel > Access Levels is able to obtain this information - I just can't work out which API it is using.
Thanks

Moving PBI to next iteration with some children done no longer works
In TFS 2012 at the end of a spring, we were able to right-click on the PBI and move all but done work items to the next iteration.
- This kept all the done task in the current sprint.
- This moved the tasks (TO_DO, In Process) to the next sprint.
Now TFS 2013.4 we get a warning that some wits could not be updated (my guess is that it has to do with the done tasks)
How should we do it now as I do NOT want to do it in EXCEL or manually open each task and updated the iteration?
This was a great feature that we accidentally discovered back in TFS 2012 and now it no longer works. :(

TFS Team Web Access - Add a Windows User or Group Dialog
Scenario:
Two Team Project Collections in the same machine.
Issue:
What is the reason that the icon on the "Add a Windows User or Group" dialog in TWA changes from a down arrow to a magnifying glass?
Down Arrow
On one Team Project Collection and its team projects the dialog shows the following:
The behavior is normal, when typing the name of the user it autocompletes or displays the names that match.
Magnifying Glass
On the other Team Project Collection and its team projects the dialog shows (this icon changed, before it was an arrow):
The behavior is different, when typing the name of the user it doesn't autocomplete nor display the matches. Instead it returns error "TF400067:Unable to find or resolve the identity"
Thanks,

Application Tier & Build Server Version Compatibility Questions...
Hi all,
Soon we will be readying a Build Server for CI for our new product currently in development. I've been experimenting, learning, playing in a 2013 TFS App Tier/2013 Build Server environment. However, I've come to learn that the new product Development team is using VS 2015 (prerelease).
So, I think I may have an issue with version compatibility. In the Build Machine Upgrade Tips ofhttps://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee259687.aspx it indicates than an earlier version Build Server can work with a more recent version of the Application Tier, but I'm guessing this cannot be the case if the tables were turned. If I create the Build Server for the new product with VS 2015 and the same version of the Build Service, I see conflict in working with TFS App Tier 2013, which will remain in place until the official release of 2015. If I'm incorrect with that guess, please let me know!!
If that is correct, what are my options? Should we hold off on CI until the company fully moves to TFS/VS 2015. I guess I could try the Build Server as 2013 with VS 2013 installed, but I don't see that working too well compiling the newer 2015 projects.
If anyone could provide insight into a way out of my dilemma I would GREATLY appreciate it!
Thanks ahead of time!!

Need a way to indicate a newly logged bug has been triaged or proven it can be reproduced or not
In MTM is there a way to indicate a bug has been triaged?
Scenario:
A new bug is reported from the customer and logged in TFS.
This bug now needs to be reproduced/recreated successfully in order to be fixed.
There is no bug state that indicates the bug has been recreated. I was just wondering how the rest of the community handles this. I would like to be able to report on bugs that are logged but have not been triaged vs bugs that have been accepted as true recreatable
bugs.

[2015RC] TFS : Where we download and install Build Agents ?
Hello,
I'm configuring my new TFS 2015 RC.
I watched this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzrDPmTOEEk
to learn how I have to configure pool agents.
I created the pool, I downloaded the latest agent but I don't understand where I have to install the agent ?
SQL Server and Sharepoint server are located in the same domain on separate dedicated servers.
On the TFS Server (Windows 2012 R2 / TFS 2015 RC ) ?
On the build Server ?
(I'm not sure a dedicated server is necessary to create a Build Server for a small Team (1 to 5 members)
Thanks for your help.
Best regards.

Publishing of Test Results into TFS 2012 hangs the build
Hi All,
I have a problem with running unit tests on the TFS2012 Team build.
Our project has ~35 000 NUnit tests running during the Team Build. Now they run using the NUnit command prompt and as result we does not see the test results on the Build Summary. The solution is to use the NUnit Test Adapter to run the tests. However during the build run it hangs on the 7-8 thousands test. However if you run tests without publishing in VS or in using the vstest.console, they successfully passed.
I reproduced the same problem running tests from the vstest.console using the TFS publisher.
I created a small MS Test project with a lot of test runs and faced the same problem when the vstest.console is used. However, this problem is not reproducing when run those tests using MSTest.exe (with publish).
Could anyone help me with this problem?

[2015RC] Issue to configure Sharepoint
Hello,
I finished install a full tfs server 2015RC.
I have an issue with default collection sharepoint site.
I created a domain with :
- Exchange Server 2013
- TFS Server 2015 RC
- SQL Server 2012 SP1
- Build Server 2015 RC
- Sharepoint 2013
- Dynamic CRM Server 2013
In TFS Administration console, default collection, Sharepoint site, in the current site location, I have a Wrong way sign with a Not Configured message.
I tried to follow those instruction,
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd631899.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
As you can see in step 4, in TFS 2013, they suggest to use the advanced link but this link is not present in the TFS 2015RC install assistant.
Could you help me to setup my sharepoint server to work with my tfs and tell me what to do with the DefaultCollection current site location ?
Thanks,
Laurent

In what level (collection or project) can I configure Sharepoint integration in TFS?
At what level (collection or project) can we configure sharepoint integration with TFS? In other words, can we configure the feature in project (instead of collection) level? Idealy we hope we could do it so that we may only allow some project to integrate with sharepoint.
Thanks

Testing TFS 2010 - How to load test data into the DB
We are currently running TFS 2010. I am working on upgrading to 2012 (highest we can go for now). I have installed 2010 on a test server and I would like to load some test data before I upgrade to 2012. Can I just grab some data from
our production database and copy it in, is it better to manually save some stuff to it through Visual Studio?

Install TFS 2015 RC Build agent
Hi,
When i installed my TFS 2015 RC Server, it asked me informations about the build agent i wanted to create and keep it "disabled" if i wanted to. Wich i did.
My dedicated build server has all the software required to build my applications. All my XAML build works fine and i wanted to give it a try at the new Build.Preview feature.
Created a build definition for one of my applications, tried to queue a build using the "Default Agent Pool" queue but got a message saying something like "no agent has msbuild, vstest" feature.
After some Google Time, founded out that was because my TFS Server (wich host the default agent) has no VS2015 on it and i needed to add an agent onto the server wich i want to build to run.
After some more Google Time, founded plenty of posts, blogs, even videos, showing how to install an agent onto a server using stuff like ConfigureAgent.ps1, WinAgent.zip, VsoAgent.zip
My problem is where can i find those files? Is it stil this way i should install an agent onto a build server wich is not my TFS server (all On-Prem - no Visual Studio Online)
Am i just missing something?
Found the following url but it is no more available:
https://vsoagent.blob.core.windows.net/latest/winagent.zip

Express vs. Standard -- what's missing?
I'm trying to make a decision on which edition to install—Express or Standard. Specifically I'm hoping to learn in painful detail exactly what I'd be giving up in terms of reporting with Express.
The most I've been able to come up with after much searching is "Some advanced analytics are not supported," or "If these services are not configured, you can access only current status reports."
Thanks, but that just doesn't do it for me. I've never used TFS nor Agile methodologies, so I'm flying a bit blind here. Exactly what kinds of reports will I be missing?
Same goes with SharePoint. What features does the integration provide that I'd miss out on?
Also... what's involved in upgrading later, should I decide to go with Express for the time being? I'm to understand that the setup package installs SQL Express on the same machine (Server 2012 R2 in my case), but if I upgrade I'm not going to want a resource-heavy SQL Standard instance on that same VM. During the upgrade will I be able to migrate the data to a different VM (one that I've provisioned for dedicated SQL Standard hosting)?
