VSTS permissions to allow all users to view images added to bugs/tasks

Good afternoon,

I'm having some issues with VSTS and i am unable to find a single reference to anyone else experiencing this issue.

We use Microsoft's Test and Feedback browser extension for our support team and developers to add useful screen shots or walk through videos of bugs and tasks into VSTS.

This is affecting everyone except me (i'm administrator) which leads me to think this may be a permission issue that i am not finding the settings for. But certain images added to tasks or bugs are broken for my developers - as if they do not have permissions to view them. And as i said they display fine for me.

enter image description here

UPDATE:

I believe this is directly related to Test and Feedback images that have the following URL: xxxxxxx.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection//TestManagement/v1.0/…?..... When user clicks the broken image they get:

"You do not have the appropriate permissions to read to the project."

This makes no sense because they are able to read other tasks and image in the same project, including other tasks with images generated by Test and Feedback. It does not appear to be happening with directly uploaded images.

Additionally i have some users who are unable to use the @ tagging in comments in VSTS, whihc i suspect is also a permisisons issue.

What permissions do i need to give (if any) to allow users to view images added to bugs and tasks via Test and Feedback or allow users to tag other people in comments?

Thanks

There has no additional permissions to view images in work items (such as bugs or tasks).

If the images are not display when you open a work item, please check the browser you are using. Options you can have a try as below:

  • Use another web browser to check if the images can be displayed.
  • Clear browser cache and cookies etc, then open a work item again.
