# Basic work item
az boards work-item create \
  --title "Fix login bug" \
  --type Bug \
  --assigned-to user@example.com \
  --description "Users cannot login with SSO"

# With area and iteration
az boards work-item create \
  --title "New feature" \
  --type "User Story" \
  --area "Project\\Area1" \

# With custom fields
az boards work-item create \

  --type Task \
  --fields "Priority=1" "Severity=2"

# With discussion comment
az boards work-item create \
  --title "Issue" \
  --type Bug \
  --discussion "Initial investigation completed"

# For a long --discussion body on Windows, see references/long-comments-on-windows.md.
# Short version: use azps.ps1 in PowerShell, or fall back to 'az devops invoke'
# with --in-file when no native --file-path flag is available.

# Open in browser after creation
az boards work-item create --title "Bug" --type Bug --open

# Update state, title, and assignee
az boards work-item update \
  --id {work-item-id} \
  --state "Active" \
  --title "Updated title" \
  --assigned-to user@example.com

# Move to different area
az boards work-item update \
  --id {work-item-id} \
  --area "{ProjectName}\\{Team}\\{Area}"

# Change iteration
az boards work-item update \
  --id {work-item-id} \
  --iteration "{ProjectName}\\Sprint 5"

# Add comment/discussion
az boards work-item update \
  --id {work-item-id} \
  --discussion "Work in progress"

# Long comment on Windows: read the body into a PowerShell variable and call
# azps.ps1 instead of az.cmd, or fall back to 'az devops invoke' with --in-file.
# Full guidance in references/long-comments-on-windows.md.

# PowerShell example:
#   $body = Get-Content -Raw .\comment.md
#   azps.ps1 boards work-item update --id 1234 --discussion $body
