How to add Azure DevOps Server connection to Integration Hub

Integration Hub provides an ability to add Azure DevOps Server connection and launch Project Online <> Azure DevOps Server integrations. 

Please note: To add Azure DevOps Server connection its version should be 2017 or higher and it should be accessible from the internet.

Please note: If your Integration Hub app is installed on the machine with Windows Server 2012 R2 system and you need to connect it to AzureDevOps Server 2020 installed on the machine with Windows Server 2019, you need to enable the TLS Security Cypher called TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 on the machine where Integration Hub is installed. This Cypher is disabled by default. You might also need to install all the latest Windows security updates on your Windows Server 2012 R2 machine to make this Cypher appear in the list. If Integration Hub is installed on the machine with Windows Server 2019 or 2022 system, you do not need any additional actions to connect to the Azure DevOps Server.

To establish a connection between Azure DevOps Server and Project Online and configure the integration scenario, the steps are the same as described in the Configuring Project Online <> Azure DevOps integration article, except for the step when you need to add Azure DevOps connection. 

To add Azure DevOps Server connection perform the following: 

1.  When Project Online connection is added, Project Online and Azure DevOps Server environments are configured, you get to the step where you need to add Azure DevOps Server connection to Integration Hub app. 

On the Visual Studio Team Services App Details page click the New button. 

Please note: To add Azure DevOps Server connection its version should be 2017 or higher and it should be accessible from the internet.
