This is a that survives upgrades. 3. REST API Mods – Automate Everything TFS 14 introduced the REST API v1.0 (now v7+ in Azure DevOps). You can write scripts to mod behavior dynamically:
$uri = "http://tfsserver:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/MyProject/_apis/wit/workitems/`$User Story?api-version=1.0" $body = @" [ "op": "add", "path": "/fields/System.Title", "value": "Automated Task", "op": "add", "path": "/fields/Custom.CustomerPriority", "value": 5 ] "@ Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri -Method Patch -Body $body -ContentType "application/json-patch+json" -UseDefaultCredentials This effectively "mods" the behavior of TFS without altering core files. From forums and enterprise case studies, here’s how real teams are modding TFS 14: tfs mod 14

The skills you learn modding TFS 14 — process templates, work item rules, extension manifests — translate directly to modern DevOps platforms. REST API Mods – Automate Everything TFS 14
