Unable to login to Azure account with Azure DevOps CLI

Question

Hello,

I'm running through this tutorial:
https://github.com/Azure-Samples/azure-search-openai-demo/tree/main
and I encounter an issue when running the command "azd auth login" in GitHub Codespaces' terminal. This very command opens an URL of the kind "http://localhost:43927/?code=0.AQMAoZ4s1SF8sUe..." on my personal laptop, which triggers an error since nothing is running locally on that port. I guess it tries to connect to the server deployed on the Cloud.

Regards,
Kevin

Answer 1

I use codespaces quite a lot, and tend to find that logging into Azure needs the --use-device-code flag set.

Eg. az login --use-device-code or azd auth login --use-device-code

Hope this helps you.
