GET /oauth2/authorize → endpoint removal

app.vssps.visualstudio.com

Deprecated, no date

The provider deprecated Azure DevOps OAuth and scheduled it for removal in 2026 without an exact shutdown date. Calls to the GET /oauth2/authorize endpoint will fail once removed. Existing applications using this authentication flow are affected.


Calls it hits

  • GET /oauth2/authorize

What to use instead of these calls

Register an app in Microsoft Entra ID and retrieve tokens using the Microsoft Entra token endpoint with the Azure DevOps scope 499b84ac-1321-427f-aa17-267ca6975798/.default. The transition requires a new app registration in a Microsoft Entra tenant and does not support personal Microsoft accounts.

Moving to Microsoft Entra ID OAuth needs a new app registration in a Microsoft Entra tenant; it does not work with personal Microsoft accounts.

In app.vssps.visualstudio.com's words
