First response – Troubleshooting Steps
Hi Giedrius,
Thank you for your patience,
To
create a PAT with the necessary permissions, please refer to the
official documentation provided by Microsoft Azure DevOps. In the
documentation, you will find details on how to create a PAT and set the
required scopes to authorize specific tasks for your integration. Here's
the link to the documentation:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/accounts/use-personal-access-tokens-to-authenticate?view=azure-devops&tabs=Windows
When
creating the PAT, it's crucial to select only the scopes that are
essential for the integration to function correctly. In your case, you
should limit the PAT's permissions to read and add information as needed
for the DevOps-Prolaborate integration. By doing so, you can minimize
the potential security risks associated with the token.
If
you have any specific questions or encounter any issues during the PAT
creation process, please feel free to reach out, and we'll be happy to
assist you further.
Suggested
the customer create a PAT by following the documentation provided by
Microsoft Azure DevOps. Emphasized the importance of selecting only the
essential scopes required for the integration (read and add information)
to minimize potential security risks.
