In my previous article, we discussed Azure DevOps and its components. This article elaborates on one of those components, Azure Boards. In the process, we explore how it helps to plan, track, and discuss work across different teams. Alternatively, you can also check out our Azure DevOps Training.

Step 4: You will be redirected to the following interface. It has four sections. The first one gives you access to all the major tabs of Azure Boards. The second one lets you add items. The third one is for issues, and the fourth one lets you manage projects and project members.
Step5: Let us create an issue, to do that click on issues drop down on top left corner of your screen and select issue.
Step6: Click on Add Item and enter the name of the issue. Once you hit the enter button, the issue tab would appear as below.
Step7: We can change the state to Doing and your item would shift under the column named Doing.
Step8: You can add tasks to the issue. This bit covers what needs to be done. I have added three tasks and I have crossed one suggesting the task was complete.
