I was doing some investigation on how I could automate some standard messages we send for my team related to some sprint tasks using Power Automate, and one simple requirement was to automatically detect the current sprint (iteration) name, to make an email content dynamic.
The problem
There is one action in Power Automate to get iterations, but it does not have a filtering option.
We could leverage this one in combination with the Filter array action in Power Automate, but I was wondering if I could make it in a more performant way and with only one action.
The solution
Azure DevOps also has a Rest API that we can leverage to do actions that are not available out of the box.
We can run a query to get the current iterations using a GET request on the the Iterations endpoint, as below:
https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/{team}/_apis/work/teamsettings/iterationsAnd it has a parameter that allows us to receive only the current iteration:
