Set up PIM access in Azure DevOps
Jul 24, 2023Deepak Kumar Mishra

Summary
This post details the technical steps for integrating Azure DevOps with Azure AD Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to manage Project Collection Administrator (PCA) roles. It outlines the creation of an Azure AD security group, enabling PIM for that group, assigning eligible users and approvers, and then mapping this PIM-enabled group to the PCA role within Azure DevOps Organization Settings. The validation steps include activating PIM access as a user and approving the request as an approver, demonstrating the end-to-end workflow for time-bound administrative access.
