Install extensions for on-premises servers

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015

To add new features and capabilities to your Azure DevOps Server, install extensions from the Azure DevOps Marketplace.

Tip

To learn more about building your own extensions, see developing and publishing extensions.

Prerequisites

Note

To use an existing Azure subscription for billing, you must have at least Co-administrator permissions for that subscription. If you don't have permissions, have an Azure Account Administrator or Service Administrator go to the Azure portal and add you as Co-administrator to the Azure subscription that you want to use for billing. Co-administrator permissions are available only in the Azure portal.

Your project collection reuses your Azure subscription for future Marketplace purchases. Where can I find more info about Azure billing?

Install extensions from the Marketplace

  1. From your Azure DevOps Server home page (https://{server}:8080/tfs/), go to the project collection where you want to install the extension.

  2. From your project collection, go to the Marketplace.

    Browse Marketplace in new navigation
  3. Find and select the extension that you want to install.

    Select an Azure DevOps Server extension

    Azure DevOps Server is connected to the Marketplace, so the Marketplace automatically filters and shows on-premises extensions only.

  4. Select Install.

  5. Confirm the project collection where you want to install this extension.

    Select project collection
  6. Finish installing your extension.

  7. Assign the extension to users who need access. Otherwise, you can go to your project collection to use your extension. Also, tell your team about this extension, so they can start using its capabilities too.

Install pre-installed extensions (first-party) for disconnected TFS

Note

This section is only for adding pre-installed extensions (first-party), if you're installing extensions that aren't pre-installed with TFS, head to the Disconnected TFS section.

In this case, you can manage extensions in disconnected TFS by completing the following steps:

  1. Hover over the shopping bag and select Manage extensions

    Select Manage extensions.

  2. Once on the Extensions page, select Browse local extensions

    On the Extensions page, Browse local extensions

  3. Scroll down until you see the Plan and track category, which includes Delivery Plans. Select Delivery Plans.

    Choose your extension

  4. You're redirected to a local extension page for Delivery Plans where you select Install. Installation works when you are both online and offline.
