How to login to Azure DevOps (Quick Tip)
Due to the complexity of Azure services, it's often not obvious how to log in to Microsoft's Azure DevOps portal. This quick tip will show you how.
Azure DevOps is part of Microsoft's huge Azure ecosystem, which makes it not so easy to navigate. You go through a series of redirects that take you to the Azure portal, but not to DevOps itself. Especially if you are new to the service and have not yet set up an Azure DevOps organization. But there is a simple way to fix this.
How to login to Azure DevOps from the landing page
Just Google "Azure DevOps" or go to https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/devops. This will take you to the marketing landing page. Then click on "Sign in".
Information for new users
If you need to create an account, do not link your account to GitHub. We have found that this causes problems with the Git credentials manager. You can link your Office account or create an entirely new account.
Access the Azure DevOps service
Under Azure Services, look for "Azure DevOps Organizations". If you don't see it in your list of favorites, just click on 'More Services' and find it there.
Access your Azure DevOps organizations
Click "My Azure DevOps Organizations" to access all organizations, or create a new one if you are a new user.
Select your organization and open the Azure DevOps portal
You need to select an organization or create a new one to access the portal. Then you should be in the right place to create projects, Git repositories and invite members.
Git for artists
Push files to Azure DevOps without worrying about Git LFS. Simplify Git for non coders.
