Visual Studio Online You do not have the required permissions to perform this action As Owner


Visual Studio Online. You do not have the required permissions to perform this action as the Owner. When trying to add a user to a VSO group.

I'm trying to add a user to the Project Collection Service Accounts. The add member is grayed out on the group and on the user it gives this error. How do I add a member to this group. I'm logged in as the VSO Owner.

I need this for the OpsHub migration utility.

Thanks!

Solution

  • You can download the latest version of OVSMU from Microsoft Gallery which handles this change of interface/permission of VSO, or for a workaround in the current version do the following:

    • Create a new (custom) VSO Group
    • Under 'Members', add your user.
    • Under 'Member of', add [DefaultCollection]Project Collection Service Accounts
    • Go back to OVSMU and re-validate the migration that you were creating.
