How to: Save a Query (Team System Web Access)

You can save queries that you have designed for your own use on the server in the My Queries folder. If you have the required permissions, you can save a query to share with other users to a folder location that other users can access. Queries saved in a location where the team can use them are called Team Queries.

Required Permissions

To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the Readers group or have the View work items in this node permission set to Allow. To save a query as a team query, you must be a member of the Project Administrators group. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.

To save a query

  1. Create or modify a work item query. For more information about how to create or modify queries, see How to: Create, Share, and Run Work Item Queries (Team System Web Access) or How to: Modify Work Item Queries (Team System Web Access).

  2. Click Save As.

  3. In the Save as Query dialog box, in the Name box, type a name for the query.

  4. Click either the My query or Team query option.

    • If only you will use the query, select My query (only visible to me).

    • If other team members will use the query, select Team query (visible to everyone).

      Note

      To save your query as a team query, you must be a member of the Project Administrators group.

  5. In the Team project list, select the team project.

  6. In the Description field, type a description.

  7. Click OK when you are finished.
