Unable to fix HTML field attachments for work item

[ahrazusmani]

I noticed that where the images embedded in the comments are not copied correctly from the source to target project. The embedded image URLs in the comments/description field still points to the source tenant. This does not appear to be an issue when the user has access to both tenants. This problem comes to light when the account that does not have access to the source tenant tries to access the migrated content in the target tenant and the embedded images appear broken because it is still pointing the source tenant. Anybody experienced this?

You need to use AccessToken mode and set FixHtmlAttachmentLinks to true.

Source and Target

"AuthenticationMode": "AccessToken",
"PersonalAccessToken": "sdsdasdsadasdsadasczxc",

WorkItemMigrationConfig

"FixHtmlAttachmentLinks": false,

Also we did have this property set to true.

Did you also have the AuthenticationMode set to AccessToken with a full control PAT configured?

[MrHinsh]

Do you know if subsequent runs will fix work items already migrated?

No it will not.

[ahrazusmani]

Did you also have the AuthenticationMode set to AccessToken with a full control PAT configured?

Yes, full scope PAT was used.

If all of those things are true I would expect to see the images downloaded and saved as attachments when the revision that contains it is processed.

Hi,
I also have an issue with migrating work item mention URL’s in the HTML fields as well as discussion comments. Images are migrated succesfully but work item mention URL's are replaced by the text eg. #4563.

In power shell console i can see an error:
[06:19:08 ERR] TfsWorkItemEmbededLinkEnricher: [SKIP] Matching target work item mention link for source work item 37772 mention link on field Acceptance Criteria on target work item 8146 was not found on the target collection. So link is replaced with just simple text.

I'm using full access PAT on both instances.

The final result is that images are migratet but work item mentions are not migrated:

[MrHinsh]

There is no way to update the contents of the work item filed that link to other work items.

You will however see that thet "links" tab will have the correct updated link.
