To add a Azure DevOps Server organization to GitProtect go to the DevOps tab on the left side of the window, expand it and select Azure DevOps. Now click the Connect button oposite to Azure DevOps Server (Self-managed, On-premise version).
Azure DevOps Server (Self-managed, On-premise version) does not support OAuth, only PAT.
After pressing the Connect button, a form will appear to fill out.
In the Settings section you need to enter the Service address your Azure DevOps Server (IP or DNS name with protocol) and Username of user, that you want to use to add your organization.
Be sure to enter your username rather than email address.
Then you need to add the previously generated PAT to the Password manager (PAT generated in the Azure DevOps Server organization).
The last section to configure is Repositories list sync options.
In general, during the adding process, you can specify the hours, when GitProtect will synchronize the resource list with your Azure DevOps or set a time interval.
Before hitting the Proceed button, pay attention to the Default device. The default device is the device assigned to GitProtect that is used to retrieve Azure DevOps organization and their data. Default worker will also be responsible for performing backup operations. By default, the application uses a device marked with a "main" label, but you can choose, which device should be responsible for performing this operation by clicking the Change button and selecting one of the devices from the list.
Now the adding process is finished. You can hit the Proceed button.
To add an organization correctly, you may be asked to grant permissions to the GitProtect application. Your browser have to allow pop-ups.
Depending on which browser you use, you can edit the browser settings or allow the permission window to be triggered once.
