Set up the Azure DevOps integration | Fluid Attacks Help

Set up the Azure DevOps integration

Follow these steps to set up Fluid Attacks' integration with Azure DevOps:
  1. Go to your Azure DevOps Organization Settings and ensure it allows third-party application access via OAuth.
    2. Turn on third-party app access on Azure DevOps to integrate with Fluid Attacks

  2. Azure allows you to configure certain issue templates with custom fields, some being mandatory. Since the integration is generic, you need to access your project, go to Project Settings and, in Permissions, ensure you have the option Bypass rules on work item updates set to Allow for the integration to function correctly.
    3. Allow Bypass rules on work item updates on Azure to integrate with Fluid Attacks
    Note on duplicate issues
    Note: To avoid creating duplicate issues, the integration first checks if there is an existing issue with the same title as the type of vulnerability. If it finds a match, it will use it as the parent issue and create only the associated "Tasks" for each individual vulnerability of the type in question.
  3. On Fluid Attacks' platform, access the Integrations section from the collapsible sidebar.
