AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor: Unable to cast object of type 'MigrationTools.Clients.TfsTeamProjectEndpoint' to type 'MigrationTools.Endpoints.AzureDevOpsEndpoint

[tatyana-avanade]

Hi, we need some help with AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor.

With the config below we are getting the following error while migrating Pipelines using AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor, migrating workitems using TfsWorkItemMigrationProcessor works as expected (so Organization, Source/Target Project Names, PAT are correct. )

For AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor it shows Unable to cast object of type 'MigrationTools.Clients.TfsTeamProjectEndpoint' to type 'MigrationTools.Endpoints.AzureDevOpsEndpoint

Here is our configuration.json file

      {

        "SourceName": "Source",
        "TargetName": "Target"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Are there any other settings missing in config? Checked documentation and all discussions here where the error or AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor are mentioned. We are using the latest 16.0.4 version.

Thanks!

The AzureDevOpsPipelineProcessor does not use the TfsTeamProjectEndpoint endpoints, it needs the AzureDevOpsEndpoint .

If you add a source and target AzureDevOpsEndpoint and set the SourceName and TargetName to those new endponts, you should be good to go.

Thanks! Updated the config to use AzureDevOpsEndpoint , there were still errors that got resolved after we added RepositoryNameMaps based on this discussion and it's now working. Your help is very much appreciated.

Here the config:
