How to manage own work across two isolated project areas
Hello,
this is description of our situation: 2 teams (team 1, team 2) 2 projects (project A, project B) needs: project A accessible only by team 1 project B accessible by both teams Because access control is available only on the project area level, we created two isolated project areas according to projects and members of of project area A are only users from team 1 and members of project area B are users from both teams. Data isolation works well. But how can I manage my work in comfortable way, when I am member of both project areas and much functionality is able to work only for one selected project area? For example "one-project-area" functions are My work, work items quick search, queries. I can see three possible solutions: A. New function: option to select more project areas in "one-project-area" functions (two isolated project areas) B. New function: the data isolation on the level of team areas (one project area, two isolated teams) C. New function: the project area and sub-project area hiearchy (one project area, two isolated sub-project areas) Which one should I use for the request of a new feature?

I'd suggest "B".
There already is a request for most of A ("cross project queries"). The problem with request A is that different projects can have differently customized work item schema, which means queries in one project might not make sense against another. But in your case, you don't need separate work item customizations ... you just need finer-grained control of visibility. So if you weren't forced to use two different project areas, there wouldn't be a multi-schema query problem. C is effectively just "B" with different terminology.
