Hello,
i would like to know if there are any walkaround to use asset upload and deployment task from Azure Pipeline with an account where MFA is activate ?
any help would be appreciate,
thanks
Well, I would say luckily there is no way to get around MFA, since that would defeat the purpose of MFA.
For LCS, we are waiting for a new authorization feature that is intended for this purpose: service-to-service authentication. In this case, Azure DevOps talking to LCS (without a user involved). There is unfortunately no confirmation on when LCS will introduce this feature.
There is only one option today, and that is to have a dedicated account (which is a good idea anyway) for this integration, but that account will have to have MFA turned off.
Hi Joris,
Thanks for your answer.
You're definitely right about the MFA, I just thought there might be another technical solution such as service-to-service authentication already in place that I would have missed.
My customers don t want to use any account with MFA turn off.
So we will wait for LCS Service-to-service update.
Please vote for this MS idea: experience.dynamics.com/.../
It will change authentication approach, so the service account will not be required to authenticate from DevOps to LCS.
Changing to web app doesn't work. It would require an interactive logon. We can interactively logon in the AZDO setup screen - however that token expires in less than 30 days, and somewhat randomly. So you'd literally have to update your AZDO setup at least once per month. We explored that option but the AAD token expiration makes this a no-starter. Service-to-service auth is the only way, and that requires LCS to introduce the feature.
