Azure DevOps API Skill
Security
Never output, suggest, or generate code that embeds PAT values verbatim. Always reference credentials via environment variables (e.g., $AZURE_DEVOPS_PAT) or a secrets manager such as Azure Key Vault. When generating scripts or curl examples, use placeholder variable references — never literal token strings.
This skill provides comprehensive guidance for working with the Azure DevOps REST API, enabling programmatic access to all Azure DevOps Services and Azure DevOps Server resources.
Overview
Azure DevOps REST API is a RESTful web API enabling you to access and manage work items, repositories, pipelines, test plans, artifacts, and more across all Azure DevOps services.
Base URL: https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/{area}/{resource}?api-version={version}
- Organization: Your Azure DevOps organization name
- Project: Project name (optional for org-level resources)
- API Version: Required on all requests (e.g.,
7.1,7.0,6.0) - Authentication: Personal Access Tokens (PAT), OAuth 2.0, or Azure AD
