Each new backlog item was like Pre-Acceptance or User-Acceptance in TFS, we need to change the status: New to Commited and Save.

If you return in your query in DevOps, you can see all backlog items migrated and with the Area Path correctly.

...

NOTE: You don’t need to create a new query for each project, just change the Area Path in your actual query to the project that will be migrated and Save it.
