Azure DevOps API Add public key

I would like to be able to add a public key for SSH access to Azure DevOps via the API but I can't seem to find a way to do it in the doco. Doing it manually via the UI is not feasible since this is for many users and many projects. Thanks

Solution

  • The API is not documented, however we can track it with tools... You can add SSH public keys by calling below REST API:

    Write a script to create the SSH keys with the ssh-keygen command for users, please see Use SSH key authentication for details.

    Then call the REST API to add the public keys:

    POST https://{Account}.visualstudio.com/_details/security/keys/Edit

Content-Type: application/json

Request body:
