User Lifecycle Management Improvements in Visual Studio Team Services
Aug 23, 2016Shantaram P

Summary
This post details improvements to user lifecycle management in Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) by integrating with Azure Active Directory (AAD) and Office 365. When a user is disabled or deleted in AAD, their access to VSTS resources is revoked within an hour. This change impacts web logins, Personal Access Tokens (PATs), Alternate Credentials, and SSH access. It also clarifies the process for AAD administrators to restore access for re-enabled or accidentally deleted users using PowerShell cmdlets. The change specifically affects VSTS accounts secured by AAD, not Microsoft Accounts (MSA).
