This blog post will show you how to reset your Azure DevOps repository password. This is an important task that should be done periodically to ensure the security of your account.
We will also provide instructions on how to change your password if you forget it. Let’s get started!
about Azure repos personal access token
An Azure Repos personal access token (PAT) is an authentication that allows you to connect to Azure Repos or Azure Pipelines from a code editor or from a command-line tool.
With a PAT, you can connect to Azure Repos or Azure Pipelines without supplying your username and password. This is helpful when you want to keep your credentials secret, for example, when you’re working on a project that has private code repositories.
To reset your Azure Repository PAT, access the Security section by clicking on your username (top right corner) and clicking on Security, as shown below.
Select your PAT, click on Regenerate and copy the password.
