How to Export Reported Vulnerabilities to Projects in TFS

There are several ways to send issues to TFS with Invicti Enterprise:

Once notifications have been configured, you can configure Invicti Enterprise to automatically send vulnerabilities after scanning has been completed (see How to Configure a Notification to Report Vulnerabilities to an Issue Tracking System).
You can send one or more issues from the Issues window:
- You must have Manage Issue permission.
- From the main menu, select Issues, then All Issues.
- From the Issues page, select one or more issues you want to send.
- Select Send To > TFS.

A pop-up is displayed, with a link to the issue you have sent to TFS. If there is an error, this information will be displayed instead.

You can send an issue from the Recent Scans window:
- From the main menu, select Scans > Recent Scans.

Next to the relevant scan, select Report.
Scroll down to the Technical Report section.
From the list of detected vulnerabilities, click to select an issue and display its details.
Select Send To > TFS.

If you have previously submitted this vulnerability to TFS, it will already be accessible. You cannot submit the same issue twice.

If you view opened problem logs in TFS, they look like this.
