Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

Control which services are available through the web portal, by turning a service on or off. Turning off a service hides the service to all members of the project. However, if you choose to enable a service later, all your existing data is available.

Prerequisites

  • You must have an organization in Azure DevOps. If you don't have one, do that now.
  • As an organization owner or member of the Project Administrators group, you can change policies and change project information. If you're not a member, get added as one.
  • You must have an Azure DevOps project. If you don't have one, add one now.
  • As a member of the Project Administrators group, you can change policies and change project information. If you're not a member, get added as one.

Enable and disable services within your project overview settings.

  1. Sign in to your organization (https://dev.azure.com/{yourorganization}) and select a project.

The service we disabled is no longer present in the side bar of Azure DevOps.
