Import from Azure DevOps

Azure DevOps is a platform from Microsoft that offers a DevOps tool for developing and deploying software. If you have Azure DevOps account, you can easily import the projects in it to Zoho Sprints in a secure manner. Your Azure DevOps projects can be transformed into an agile scrum project on Zoho Sprints.

  2. You can import only up to 5 projects at a time
  3. You can process a single import at a time
  4. You will receive an notification after the import is complete
