Hi @Chunduru, Vamsee Krishna

Greetings & Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum! Thanks for posting your query!

It seems you're facing an issue connecting Azure Databricks Repos with your on-premises Azure DevOps Server 2020. While Azure Databricks supports Azure DevOps Services (cloud version) natively, there can be challenges when working with on-premises Azure DevOps Server.

Could you kindly provide the details of the error you are experiencing? The more information you share, the better assistance we can offer.

In the meantime, please consider the following potential reasons and suggestions to address the issue:

Personal Access Token (PAT) - Verify that the PAT has the necessary permission scopes, for more details, please refer the following documentation.

• Personal access tokens
• Configure Git credentials & connect a remote repo to Azure Databricks

Service Principal Configuration - Confirm that the service principal is correctly configured and has the required access to the Azure Databricks workspace. For additional information, please refer:

• Use a Microsoft Entra service principal to authenticate access to Azure Databricks Git folders

Network Connectivity - Ensure there are no network connectivity issues between Azure Databricks and on-premises Azure DevOps Server. If your server is behind a firewall, verify that Azure Databricks can reach it (e.g., via VPN or a public endpoint).

I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
