Is it possible (or desirable) for a work item to queue an assembly in TFS?

Our company has many teams that constantly send us job requests using TFS. I know that this can cause an assembly from registration or on a schedule, but this is not what we need. We would like team leaders to be able to create an assembly request work item in TFS that would queue a specific assembly definition. Is it possible?

I also wonder if it is advisable to approach the problem this way. I am new to the development team, and we are thinking about ways to automate the build. Is that a good idea? If not, why? How far can you automate the build process?

Thanks!

The answer to your first question: NO, not out of the box. I would say that collecting a shoot based on Build work item types is not a good idea. Work items cannot be locked by type, and therefore you cannot isolate the creation of these work items only to commands.

You can assign launch permissions to individuals / groups, which will be the recommended way to provide building permits for your team managers.

For your second question, you can take automation as much as you want using the team build API. MS made TFS and Team Build very extensible.
