# Step 3: Synchronizing work items

> Create work items in Azure DevOps and synchronize them with Test Manager so they appear on the Requirements page.

Create a work item in Azure DevOps and check that it appears as a requirement on the Requirements page in Test Manager. Items created before the integration need Push to Test Manager from the item's Actions menu.

## Steps

1. Log in to Azure DevOps and open your project.
2. Select the ![plus icon](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/test-manager/test-manager-docs-image-blue-add-c1535f86-90f0a81e.png) plus button and select a **New work item** from the dropdown.
3. Configure your work item and then select **Save & Close**. For more information, see [Add and update a work item](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/boards/backlogs/manage-work-items?view=azure-devops&tabs=browser).
4. Log in to Test Manager.
5. Go to **Requirements** to view the synchronized work item.
   :::note
   To synchronize work items created before the integration, open an individual item, select the ![Actions icon](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/test-manager/test-manager-docs-image-actions-icon-fd15ea98-d13395fe.png) **Actions** button, and select **Push to Test Manager** from the dropdown.
   :::
6. (Optional) To refresh the page, select the **Requirements** breadcrumb element.

## Result

The Azure DevOps project is connected to Test Manager. Work items are synchronized as requirements, and defects created in Test Manager are synchronized back to Azure DevOps.
