Dears,
I have a solution for this and I think it will be helpful for all. Whenever you want to import/update Team areas or Project areas to work items on RTC. You need to find the equivalent name for a project/team area on RTC. Just replace this equivalent name in the csv file you are going to use and that is it.
You have 2 ways to get this equivalent name:
- From the admin view on a project area click on a team area and form the URL displayed in address bar (it wil be like that TeamArea&itemId=_hjaWAXXXXXNItGq29)
- You can export some work items with many Team/project area IDs, you just need to select the Team area and/or project area attributes and select to show Internal values in exported sheet.
