Solution

  • According to your screenshot, you may enter the wrong url or not select a project to connect.

    In Azure DevOps service, there is no need to add any collection in the url, an organization is just kind of a collection--defaultcollection. So you shouldn't add collection name when you try to connect in Team Explorer.

    As you can see, it's connect to a project. Please select a team project during the drop down list.

    After you connected to a team project in Azure DevOps service, you should be able to see something as below

    enter image description here

    There is an arrow, after click it, you will be able to see all projects which you have permission to access. And projects already mapped will be black. You could directly get latest and download files from source control. More detail steps please follow our official tutorial here-- Download (get) files from the Server

    Otherwise, you need to first map with your local folders, then get source later.
