About pipeline security roles

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015

While the majority of features and functional tasks are managed by individual permissions, there are several artifacts and features that the system manages through role-based permissions. You can add users or groups to a role. Each role determines the set of operations that the user can perform as described in the following sections.

Many role-based permissions can be set for all artifacts of a specific type in a project, or for the project or collection and then selectively inherited for a specific artifact. Role memberships for individual items automatically inherit those set for the project or collection. If required, you can turn off Inheritance for a specific artifact.

Default role assignments

By default, all contributors in a project are members of the User role on each hosted queue. This allows every contributor in a project to author and run build and release pipelines using hosted queues.

Agent pool security roles, project-level

You add users to the following security roles from the project-level admin context, Agent Pools page. For information on adding and managing agent pools, see Agent pools.

Role (project-level) Description
Reader Can view the pool. You typically add operators to this role that are responsible for monitoring the build and deployment jobs in that pool.
User Can view and use the pool when authoring build or release pipelines.
Creator Can create and use the pool when authoring build or release pipelines.
Administrator Can manage membership for all roles of the pool, as well as view and use the pools. The user that created a pool is automatically added to the Administrator role for that pool.

You control the security of all project agent pools from the Security tab. Role memberships for individual project agent pools automatically inherit from what those roles. By default, the following groups are added to the Administrator role of 'All agent pools': Build Administrators, Release Administrators, Project Administrators.
