You can use the code review and feedback fields to create queries and reports that track the status of these processes. The fields appear in the following work item types, which are included with the default processes for Azure Boards and TFS: Code Review Request, Code Review Response, Feedback Request, and Feedback Response.
The following fields are used to track code review requests and responses. You can only make a Code Review request against code maintained in a Team Foundation version control (TFVC) repository. A code review response is created for each person who provides review comments. See Day in the life of a Developer: Suspend work, fix a bug, and conduct a code review.
Note
Retrieving code review comments programmatically isn't a supported feature.
