Which versions of Visual Studio can I use with Azure DevOps?

Important

While previous versions of Visual Studio are compatible with Azure DevOps, it's a best practice to make sure you are on the latest update of that version and to use supported versions of Visual Studio whenever possible.

You can use the following versions:

  • Visual Studio 2019
  • Visual Studio 2017
  • Visual Studio 2015
  • Visual Studio 2013
  • Visual Studio 2012
  • Visual Studio 2010, which requires Service Pack 1 and KB2662296
  • Visual Studio 2008 SP1, which requires a GDR update

To connect to Azure DevOps with Visual Studio 2008 through Visual Studio 2012:

  1. Start Visual Studio.
  2. From the Team menu or Team Explorer, go to Connect to TFS > Select Team Projects > Servers.
  3. Add your organization ({yourorganization}.visualstudio.com).
  4. Select your project and prepare connection.

If you get connection errors, try choosing HTTPS as your protocol.

Can I use Visual Studio 2015 with Visual Studio 2013 and 2012 on the same computer?

Yes, you can run all of these versions on the same computer.

Can I use earlier versions of Visual Studio to connect to Azure DevOps?
