AADSTS50076 - Using LCS Connector with MFA Enabled in Azure DevOps Pipelines

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Jakob Becker 52
Hello everyone,

we have been using Azure DevOps pipelines for some time to automatically supply our D365FO customers with updates.
However, it seems that Microsoft has now enforced MFA for all our user accounts in the tenant, and there appears to be no option to disable this.
As a result, all our releases that attempt to access LCS using the Dynamics Lifecycle Services Connector are failing.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no solution available online for this issue yet.
Does anyone have an idea on how to continue using the LCS Connector with MFA enabled?

    Its not supported, and I'm seeing the same question asked by multiple end users at the moment.
     
    The official line is to create a dedicated account with minimum permissions, and put it in an MFA exclusions group.
     
     

    Note

    Dynamics Lifecycle Services doesn't support service-to-service authentication. Therefore, only regular user credentials (that is, a user name and password) can be used. Because the pipelines don't run interactively, multifactor authentication must not be set up for the account that you use. We recommend that you set up a separate user account that has limited access and strong credentials that can regularly be rotated for security purposes.

    Unfortunately, Mohamed's response is not helpful at all.
    The blog post is the first thing that comes up when searching online for the problem.
    The solution mentioned in the blog post suggests using a different account or disabling MFA for the account.
    As I already mentioned in my initial question, that is not an option for us.
