For repositories stored on Azure, the `azure` backend allows CMS users to log in directly with their Azure account. Note that all users must have write access to your content repository for this to work.
|
|
|
|
In order to get Netlify-CMS working with Azure DevOps, you need a Tenant Id and an Application Id.
|
|
|
|
1. If you do not have an Azure account, [create one here](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F) and make sure to have a credit card linked to the account.
|
|
2. If you do not have an Azure Active Directory Tenant Id, [set one up here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-create-new-tenant).
|
|
3. [Register an application with Azure AD](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-register-app). Configure it as a Single tenant Web application and add a redirect URI (e.g. `http://localhost:8080/`)
|
|
4. Add the `Azure DevOps->user_impersonation` [permission](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-configure-app-access-web-apis#add-permissions-to-access-your-web-api) for the created application.
|
|
5. [Grant admin consent](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-configure-app-access-web-apis#admin-consent-button) for the application.
|
|
6. Under `Authentication->Implicit grant` enable [Access tokens](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/access-tokens) for the application and click `Save`.
|
|
7. Verify your Azure DevOps organization is connected to the same directory as your tenant under: `https://dev.azure.com/<organization>/_settings/organizationAad`
|
|
8. Add the following lines to your Netlify CMS `config.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
backend:
|
|
name: azure
|
|
repo: organization/project/repo # replace with actual path
|
|
tenant_id: tenantId # replace with your tenantId
|
|
app_id: appId # replace with your appId
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Limitations
|
|
|
|
1. Pagination is not supported so some endpoints might return missing data
|
|
|
|
2. Nested collection are partially supported as Azure doesn't allow [renaming and editing](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/git/pushes/create?view=azure-devops-rest-6.1&source=docs#rename-a-file) in a single operation
