How to get all repos in Azure DevOps

Question

I have number of projects in Azure DevOps. I want to able to iterate through all Repos in Azure DevOps and get the name of the Repo, Creator of Repo and Last Updated/commit.

And get a notification when some one created new Repo?

Answer 1

We can list the repo info via REST API

List all repositories and get the name of the repo:

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories?api-version=6.1-preview.1

Get the Creator:

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories/{repositoryId}/refs?api-version=6.1-preview.1

Note: we can get the branch creator via this API, I didn't find any APIs to get the repo creator.

Get latest commit:

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories/{repositoryId}/commits?searchCriteria.$top=1&api-version=6.1-preview.1

Get a notification when some one created new Repo

We cannot create this notification, we can get a notification when someone updated the repo code. Please refer this link for more details: Supported event types

Is there any PowerShell script code to do all the above operations in single execution? – Bonanno

Hi @Pradeep, I have updated the answer, please check it. – Fillender

Thanks @Vito, once I will test the above script, then I will accept your answer. – Bonanno

Hi @Pradeep, Feel free to let me know the result. If you still have any questions, I will still be here to help you. – Fillender

It is working as expected, but I want to get the creator of the Repo. and I want to display the output in table format. – Bonanno

Hi @Pradeep, Please check the doc: Format-Table and Export-Csv – Fillender

Thanks, my URL was structured differently but this still works: https://{organization}.visualstudio.com/{project}/_apis/git/repositories?api-version=6.1-preview.1 – Silicle

Answer 2

Another option (easier with the Auth part) is to retrieve your Azure Repositories is through the AZ CLI using following commands:

1. Log into Azure

   az login -t $tenant
   

2. First configure default values for organization and project, this will help you to not specify --project and --organization parameters in every az devops/repos command:

   az devops configure -d organization=$organizationUrl project=$project
   

3. List repositories of your subscription and default project and organization

   az repos list --subscription $subscription

Install-Module -Name VSTeam 
$pat="YYYY"
Set-VSTeamAccount https://dev.azure.com/dXXXX/ -PersonalAccessToken $pat
Get-VSTeamGitRepository

Answer 4

or you can run this script (if az devops doesn't work, then add the azure-devops extension) and remember to replace URL-of-your-ado-org with your real URL:

    # will be prompted to log in via browser
    az login

    # get all your ADO projects in your org in json format
    $adoprojs = az devops project list

    # convert to powershell object
    $projObjs = $adoprojs | ConvertFrom-Json

    # loop through each ADO project and find it's repos
    foreach ($proj in $projObjs.value.name) {
        write-host "looking in $proj ADO project for repos"
        # set to specific ADO project
        az devops configure --defaults organization=URl-of-your-ado-org project=$proj
        # now get it's repos (in json)
        $jsonRepos = az repos list
        # convert repos from json format to powershell object
        $RepoObjs = $jsonRepos | ConvertFrom-Json
        # now list each repo
        foreach ($repo in $RepoObjs) {
            write-host "  " $repo.name
        }
    }
