Add new features and capabilities to your organization by installing extensions for Azure DevOps.

To learn about building your own Azure DevOps extensions, see developing and publishing extensions.

Prerequisites

• Only Project Collection Administrators or organization Owners can install extensions. If you don't have permissions, you can request extensions instead.
• Private extensions must be shared with your organization to be installed. Check out the publishing documentation for information on how to share private extensions.

Your extension is now installed! You can now go to your organization to use your extension. Also, tell your team about this extension, so they can start using its capabilities.

Azure DevOps CLI

You can install an extension with the az devops extension install command. To get started, see Get started with Azure DevOps CLI.

If necessary, first search for an extension with the az devops extension search command.

az devops extension install --extension-id
                            --publisher-id
                            [--org]

Parameters

• extension-id: The name of the extension to install.
• publisher-id: The name of the extension publisher.
• org: Azure DevOps organization URL. You can configure the default organization using az devops configure -d organization=ORG_URL. Required if not configured as default or picked up using git config. Example: --org https://dev.azure.com/MyOrganizationName/.
