Azure Devops

This is a comprehensive reference for the Azure DevOps REST API that covers all the major services: Boards for work item tracking and queries, Repos for Git operations and pull requests, Pipelines for builds and releases, plus Test Plans and Artifacts. It includes concrete endpoint patterns, request formats, and authentication examples using PATs. The skill emphasizes security best practices, specifically never hardcoding tokens in your code. If you're building integrations or automation around Azure DevOps, this gives you the API patterns and JSON structures you need without having to dig through Microsoft's documentation. The coverage is solid across work items, repositories, commits, branches, and pull request workflows.

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.
