Integrate Azure DevOps (Create Tickets)

Connect Azure DevOps to Scrut to create and manage compliance-related work items directly from the platform.

What This Integration Does in Scrut

  • Task Management: Enables you to create project management tickets in Scrut and sync them to Azure DevOps.

Prerequisites

  • An active Azure DevOps account with admin access.
  • A project and team configured in your Azure DevOps organization.

Permissions and Access Requirements

For Azure DevOps

Scrut requests the following OAuth scopes during the integration:

  • vso.graph: Grants read access to user, group, scope, and group membership information.
  • vso.project: Grants read access to projects and teams.
  • vso.work_write: Grants the ability to read, create, and update work items and queries, update board metadata, and receive notifications about work item events via service hooks.

For Scrut

  • Admin access to Scrut or a Contributor role with access to the Integrations module.

Supported Versions

  • Scrut supports Git version control only. Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC) is not supported.
