At Microsoft Build last spring we announced<\/a> the ability for developers to sign in to Azure DevOps (and other Microsoft online services). The goal was to make it easier for developers to use Azure Pipelines<\/a> and other services inside Azure DevOps, to build better applications, faster, and collaboratively.<\/p>\n

Since then we\u2019ve seen an overwhelmingly positive response to this capability. Thank you!<\/p>\n

As a community, GitHub has many developers and teams. And we want each team to bring their members on GitHub to Azure DevOps for the scenarios that Azure DevOps fulfills.<\/p>\n

Looking up your GitHub collaborators<\/h3>\n

Today we\u2019re announcing the next step in the journey of making Azure DevOps and GitHub work great together. If you are an admin, sign into Azure DevOps with your GitHub identity, and you can now invite your GitHub team members. You can search and invite them from the Project homepage:<\/p>\n

\"Inviting<\/p>\n

All you need to do is search by username or display name and with a few keystrokes you’ll see the list of matches from the GitHub community.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, you can also do this from the user hub (Organization Settings -> Users). Use the \u2018+Add new users\u2019 capability to invite your GitHub team members:<\/p>\n

\"Invite<\/p>\n

Adding your GitHub collaborators<\/h3>\n

Once you have selected your collaborators from the GitHub community, add them to your organization. Finally, share your Azure DevOps organization URL (https:\/\/dev.azure.com\/{OrganizationName}) with your invited friends for them to sign-in and gain access to the project.<\/p>\n

Pre-requisite<\/h4>\n

Since this feature is designed to enable better collaboration among GitHub users on Azure DevOps, it lights up only if you are signed in to Azure DevOps with your GitHub identity.<\/p>\n

Enabling this capability<\/h3>\n

Create a new Azure DevOps organization with your GitHub username and this new capability is turned on by default.<\/p>\n

For existing organizations, the organization admin can turn on this capability in the \u2018Policies\u2019 setting (https:\/\/dev.azure.com\/{OrganizationName}\/_settings\/policy) of their Azure DevOps organization:<\/p>\n

\"Enable<\/p>\n

Once turned on, sign-out completely and from a fresh browser session sign-in directly to the Organization where it is turned on (https:\/\/dev.azure.com\/{OrganizationName}) or (https:\/\/{OrganizationName}.visualstudio.com\/).<\/strong><\/p>\n
