Turn expiration deadlines into Azure DevOps work items your team already tracks
Azure DevOps is a DevOps platform that teams rely on to capture, organize, and resolve their day-to-day work. For many teams, it's where work actually gets done.
By connecting Azure DevOps to Expiration Reminder, every approaching license, certification, or document deadline can become a work item in the workspace your team already monitors. Renewals stop hiding in inboxes and become tracked work, so nothing falls through the cracks.
- Automatically create a Azure DevOps work item when a document, license, or certification is approaching its expiration date, with the details your team needs to act.
- Keep renewals moving by routing each work item into the Azure DevOps workflow your team already uses, so ownership and progress stay clear at a glance.

Why connect Azure DevOps and Expiration Reminder?
Compliance deadlines are easy to miss when they live apart from your team's daily work. A certification expires or a permit lapses because the reminder never reached the place where your team actually tracks its work.
This integration closes that gap. Expiration Reminder turns upcoming deadlines into Azure DevOps work items, so renewals appear right alongside the rest of your team's work. No extra tool to monitor, and no deadline left in the dark.
Key benefits
- Never miss a deadline again. Upcoming expirations become Azure DevOps work items automatically, landing in a workspace your team actively follows.
- Clear ownership. Assign each work item to the right person so every deadline has someone accountable.
- Fits your workflow. Renewals are tracked using the Azure DevOps statuses and views your team already relies on.
- Less manual tracking. Replace scattered spreadsheets and calendar pings with work items that stay current.
- Act earlier. Catch expirations well ahead of the deadline and resolve them before they become risks.
How it works
Once connected, Expiration Reminder monitors the documents, licenses, and certifications you track along with their expiration dates. As a deadline approaches, the integration can create a Azure DevOps work item that includes the item name, its expiration date, and other relevant details so your team knows exactly what to do.
Work items appear in the workspace you choose, so there are no new dashboards to learn. You decide which records create work items and how far in advance, keeping the signal high and the noise low.
Use cases
Operations and compliance teams. A company tracks business licenses, insurance, and vendor agreements in Expiration Reminder. Each upcoming renewal becomes a Azure DevOps work item routed to the right owner and worked to completion.
Field and project teams. A services firm monitors worker certifications and equipment inspections. Renewal work items land in Azure DevOps and get assigned to the right lead, keeping every job site compliant.
HR and credentialing. A team tracks mandatory training and credential renewals. Expiring items become Azure DevOps work items the team can prioritize, assign, and track to done.
Getting started
Setting up the Azure DevOps integration takes only a few minutes. From your Expiration Reminder account, open the integrations area, choose Azure DevOps, and authorize the connection. Then choose which records create work items and how far in advance. For step-by-step instructions, see the setup guide linked on this page.
