Work Item Only View - View All Work Items

Question

I have users in the [Work Item Only View]. Is there a way to let them see all work items instead of just the items they submitted?

Answer 1

No. The TFS work item only view is there only to allow you to enforce CAL licensing.

Work Item Only View allows any user, without a TFS Client Access License (CAL), to access TFS for the specific purpose of creating work items and viewing work items that they've created.

In order for users to see all work items, they will need a CAL. At that point, they should not be a user in Work Item Only View, you should just create a group that has the appropriate permissions to view work items.
