-YAML pipelines don't have a [Create work item on failure](build/options.md#create-a-work-item-on-failure) setting like classic build pipelines. Classic build pipelines are single stage, and **Create work item on failure** applies to the whole pipeline. YAML pipelines can be multi-stage, and a pipeline level setting may not be appropriate. To implement **Create work item on failure** in a YAML pipeline, you can use methods such as the [Work Items - Create](/rest/api/azure/devops/wit/work-items/create) REST API call or the Azure DevOps CLI [az boards work-item create](/cli/azure/boards/work-item#az-boards-work-item-create) command at the desired point in your pipeline.
