Create SharePoint list item from yaml pipeline - sharepoint

I have a power automate flow that sends notifications when a new item is added or modified on a SharePoint list. The item contains information like the deployment status, pipeline URL, pull request URL, submitter, release date, etc. Today developers have to manually create/modify list items. I want to automate this process directly from the yaml pipelines and create/modify a list item. Is there anyway I can do this?

How can I get a list of external links for a Work Item using the Azure DevOps API?

I have a GitHub repo whose development is managed on Azure DevOps, linked using Azure Boards. In the 'Development' field of each Work Item (e.g. User Story, Task) is a list of linked GitHub commmits for that item. I would like to use the Azure DevOps API to retrieve this list for each work item.
What I've tried:
This list doesn't seem to correspond to a field in the list of Work Item fields (from the https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/wit/fields endpoint). The number of GitHub links seems to match the System.ExternalLinkCount, but I can't find a way to then list these links.
Using the WIQL for WorkItemLinks (documentation here), but this looks like it's only for links between work items, not e.g. links from work items to other external resources
The general documentation covers GitHub links, but not in terms of the API.
Please use $expand=relations parameter to get details of linked items.
There is difference between API in v5.1 and v6.0 where on the second flog is included by default.

when publishing from excel to azure how to add all items in azure boards including items other than default 6 items

I have connected my azure boards to excel sheet but when I publish my data from excel to azure only the default values(ID, Title, Work Item type, State, Reason, Assigned To) are added. I have edited my boards and added more detailed values to it which I wanted to be taken from excel when I publish to boards but each time I try I am not able to connect my additional details(values) from excel to Azure Devops Board.
Is there a way to do that or just a dead end.
You must choose the additional colums via the "Team" Ribbon, "Choose Columns" from the predefinied colums list.
The columns added to excel this way will get updated in AzureDevops / TFS.

How to see the user who called the Pipeline Trigger Job in the Gitlab CI?

I created with my user, one trigger in the Pipeline triggers of my project. I successfully executed the trigger and it appears on the job page. But since I want this trigger to be used by all developers on my team, I need to see who triggered the job. But always appears on the job page, that I, who created the trigger, triggered all jobs and not the other user who actually triggered it.
There is any way that can I show who triggered the job?
I tried to use, as another option the creating pipeline via API and setting a private token to each user. But when I pass a variable in the request, apparently the Gitlab API is not working with the variables option. Because, when we create a pipeline trigger and request it, we don't pass a user token, we pass the trigger token.

If you navigate to the repository that contains the CI Pipeline, under CI/CD>Pipelines there should be a table showing all past instances of the pipeline. There is a "Triggerer" column which should show you who triggered it.
If you are still unable to see who triggered it, perhaps you need to adjust your own permissions

Add MyActivity to Activity Picklist for Capacity Planning in Azure Devops Services

How can I add a new activity type to this list while doing capacity planning in Azure Devops?
Please note that I am NOT using on-prem hosted version rather using the cloud services
Also, please don't direct me to this question as it only addresses how to add a custom field to replace activity field in a work item only. How to add a new Activity type to the Task work item in VSTS
My question is strictly for Capacity Planning picklist for cloud hosted Azure Devops
You need to edit the process that your project uses.
Make sure your process is editable. Here is an article on how to customize your process
Once you can edit your process, open the issue type your process uses for Iteration backlog (Tasks usually). Same should work for Requirement backlog (User Story for Agile, for example)
Add existing field called 'Activity' to one of your work item pages
Now you should be able to edit this field: add, remove whatever you need in the list of possible values
After you save the list of possible values for Activity field, the drop down you refering to should have the combined list (items from Requirement backlog and Iteration backlog levels, i.e. from User Stories and Tasks, for example).
The reason the workaround given in that other question is to create a new field is because you can't change the existing field. Thus, the answer is "you can't add a new activity type to the capacity planning view".

Azure Easy table send notification

We have a inhouse small application that has a Azure Easy Table with a list of orders.
I would like that when one-person changes anything in this table a notification is send to the other PCs running the application to update this item.
Is there any way to monitor the Easy table for changes and then send update notification, or change the .js file of the Easy Table to do something on update?
