Cannot find organization's project in "Showing hosted repositories for"

My email address was added to a project in Azure DevOps in an organization by my Client. At that time I did not have a Microsoft account. So whenever I tried to login into Azure DevOps through the URL, "https://dev.azure.com/{Organization}/{Project}" Azure sent me a one-time code through which I could log in. However, the client expected me to pull code into Visual Studio using the Azure DevOps server URL. But that requires a Microsoft Account which I did not have.

So I contacted my administrator who created a Microsoft Account for me using my work email address. My client then removed and added my account back to the project in the Azure DevOps organization. But still, when I go to log into Azure DevOps, it is still sending me a one-time passcode. In Visual Studio, I managed to login using my Microsoft Account but when I try to connect to my client's project using the Azure DevOps server URL, I get the message "To access an Azure DevOps account, log in using the picker above." This despite the fact that I am already logged in using the Microsoft Account and I have selected it from the list "Showing hosted repositories for".

I have a done a lot of research for this scenario but did not find any answers. Here are some pointers

Thank you for the detailed post!

When it comes to your Microsoft Account, how did your organization create this account? Was it within Azure Active Directory? Or within Azure DevOps or another website?


As of right now, Azure DevOps is currently not supported here on the Q&A forums, our Azure DevOps experts are actively answering questions in dedicated forums here:

Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.

@JamesTran-MSFT When it comes to your Microsoft Account, how did your organization create this account?

The Microsoft account was created from this site:

https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/Home?source=applauncher#/homepage/:/adduser

As far as I understand, a Microsoft Account once created can be used across any Microsoft services including Azure DevOps.

Thank you for the follow up on this!

You're right, with your Microsoft account, you should be able to access Microsoft services including Azure DevOps. However, once you log in to Azure DevOps, if you can't see your client's DevOps organization, I'd recommend reaching out to our Azure DevOps community experts via their Developer forum.


If this issue is more related to your Microsoft account and not Azure DevOps, can you please share a screenshot of what you're seeing so I can gain a better understanding of your issue?
