Solution

  • Read the documentation that the error message provided.

    The data migration tool for Azure DevOps supports the two latest releases of Azure DevOps Server at a given time. Releases include updates and major releases. Currently the following versions of Azure DevOps Server are supported for import:

    • Azure DevOps Server 2019
    • Azure DevOps Server 2019.0.1

    You will note that TFS 2018 is not a supported version. You will have to upgrade first.
