Azure AD Sync with Azure DevOps

I've successfully connected my Azure DevOps organization with my Azure AD Tenant. Authentication works ok (only users from my tenant can log in) but I can't see any groups from my Azure AD on Azure DevOps level (it is like 5 days after I've done the connection) so my question is how to fore sync between Azure Ad and Azure DevOps? My goal is to have one group on Azure AD (where I would add people responsible for dev-ops stuff) and add this group to Azure DevOps.

I will be very grateful for any help or pointers on how to solve this.

Solution

  • This sounds very familiar to my issue I was having, which I posted a similar answer to on this stack overflow question.

    Essentially you cannot see/search Azure AD users or groups as a Guest user - are you a Guest user in this Azure AD?

    If you are a guest user you will need to convert yourself to a Member rather than Guest.

    My solution was to

    • Download the AzureAD powershell module
      • Install-Module AzureAD
    • Connect to my AzureAD instance
      • Connect-AzureAD -TenantId [your tenant id]
    • Update the user
      • Set-AzureADUser -ObjectId [User object id] -UserType Member

    Once I logged out and in again (clearing my cookies) - tadaa! All my Azure AD groups/users were visible to me in the add screens of my DevOps organization.
