How to disable GIT from Azure Data Factory?

Ivan Dale (MLCSU) 16

I am using Azure Data Factory for the first time and am unable to publish my pipeline "You have GIT enabled in your data factory. Publishing in 'Data Factory' mode is disabled. Please switch back to GIT mode to make further changes. Read about our Best Practices."
Thanks for any help you can offer.

@Ivan Dale (MLCSU) Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A !!

If you have enabled your Git Configuration then in order to publish your changes you need to change from "Data Factory" to "Azure DevOps/GitHub" Mode like below then you can publish your changes from your GitHub/Devops instance as shown below-

Also, if you want to disable your GitHub repository you need to go to Git Configuration tab under Manage and use Disconnect button to remove the Git repository association as shown in the below GIF.

Please refer to Source control in Azure Data Factory for more details.

The Azure DevOps GIT option is greyed-out (disabled). Also, regarding your second suggestion of disconnecting the GitHub repository; the "Disconnect" button is greyed out (disabled).

Please suggest another alternative. Kind regards, Ivan Dale

Hi,
I am also facing the same issue sporadically from past couple of weeks, no resolution yet. We are using GitHub, the problem going away without any changes and coming back again.

You may be seeing this error if you have not authenticated to your GitHub/Azure DevOps account. Ideally, you should be seeing a message like below when you try to login to your Azure Data Factory.

You need to login to GitHub/Azure Dev Ops instead of cancelling it to grant your ADF access to your Azure DevOps repository. Please let me know if this is not the case.

I started experiencing the same issue over the last few days. Our Data Factory instance was previously linked correctly to a private Github repo and was working correctly for months. We have made no changes to either our Github permissions or to our ADF instance. As others have said, editing the git configuration in the Manage pane is disabled. I cannot save or publish.

I do get a Log into GitHub prompt (which is new -- it only started appearing with this issue). I login and the authentication appears successful on the Github side. The prompt goes away but the problem persists.

I have tried removing and re-adding the AzureDataFactory third-party application access policy in our Github org to no avail. I also tried creating a new ADF instance and pointing it to the same repo, also to no avail (it is not able to read the repo).

I'm happy to provide more info and help troubleshoot the issue or explore possible workarounds. We're currently blocked.

@Jeremy Jones (HCA) Can you please check on this -

Please check the permission of the User @ RG level of ADF

Verify any Custom Policy in place for that User

User who tries to configure GIT does have access to Disable as well.

Please let me know if that's not the case.

This turned out to be a bug within ADF and a fix has since been released. Thanks for your help!

Am trying to publish the pipeline but unable to because of this GIT configuration. I'm new to ADF. The GIT settings are disabled like mentioned above and I have never setup a GITHub account. There was no such prompt to log into the GITHub and is it mandatory to login? Can't I disable it and run in Data Factory?
