Looking for rest api to retrieve user entitlements on on-premise azure devops

Question

I am automating a couple of processes on an on-premise azure devops environment and I am looking for rest apis that would allow me retrieve user entitlements from the azure devops server.

Answer 1

Currently there isn't such a REST API to retrieve user entitlements for on-premise Azure DevOps server.

However as a workaround we can retrieve all the users using the client API from a specific collection: (Need to install Microsoft.TeamFoundationServer.ExtendedClient )

using System;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Client;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Common;
using System.Linq;
using System.IO;

namespace Getuserlist

{

    class Program

    {
        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            TfsConfigurationServer tcs = new TfsConfigurationServer(new Uri("https://wsicads2019"));

            IIdentityManagementService ims = tcs.GetService<IIdentityManagementService>();

            TeamFoundationIdentity tfi = ims.ReadIdentity(IdentitySearchFactor.AccountName, "[DefaultCollection]\\Project Collection Valid Users", MembershipQuery.Expanded, ReadIdentityOptions.None);

            TeamFoundationIdentity[] ids = ims.ReadIdentities(tfi.Members, MembershipQuery.None, ReadIdentityOptions.None);

            using (StreamWriter file = new StreamWriter("userlist.txt"))

                foreach (TeamFoundationIdentity id in ids)

                {
                    if (id.Descriptor.IdentityType == "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity")

                    { Console.WriteLine("[{0},{1}]", id.UniqueName); }

                    file.WriteLine("[{0},{1}]", id.UniqueName);
                }

            var count = ids.Count(x => ids.Contains(x));
            Console.WriteLine(count);
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

Alternately run TFSSecurity command from Developer command prompt on Client or run on Azure DevOps Server Application Tier to get list of all users and groups:

tfssecurity /imx all: /server:http://server:8080/tfs

For access levels we can call the following REST APIs to get the corresponding users: (Tested on Azure DevOps 2019)
