Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

Create an Azure DevOps project to establish a repository for source code and to plan and track work. You can manage and structure your project to support your business needs. Each project provides boundaries to isolate data from other projects. For more information, see About projects and scaling your organization.

Important

Select a version from Azure DevOps Content Version selector.

Select the version of this article that corresponds to your platform and version. The version selector is above the table of contents. Look up your Azure DevOps platform and version.

Note

If you don't want to manage an on-premises server, sign up for Azure DevOps Services and create a project.

Prerequisites

  • Organization: Have an organization. If you don't have one, create one.
  • Permissions: Be a member of the Project Collection Administrators group or have the collection-level "Create new projects" permission set to Allow. Organization owners are automatically members of this group.
  • Project collection: Have a project collection. If you don't have one, create one.
  • Permissions: Be a member of the Project Collection Administrators group or have the collection-level "Create new projects" permission set to Allow. Organization owners are automatically members of this group.

Important

To create a public project or make a private project public, enable additional policy settings to work with public projects, and then return to this article to create your project.

Create a project

You can create up to 1,000 projects within an organization in Azure DevOps. For more information, see Work tracking, process, and project limits.

Important

When you create a project from the web portal, Azure DevOps ignores several process template files. Specifically, the files that would create a Report Manager site aren't supported. You can add reports later by following the instructions provided in Add reports to a teams project.

There isn't a limit on the number of projects that you can create within a project collection, however for performance purposes, we recommend you limit the number to 300 or fewer. For more information, see Work tracking, process, and project limits.

  1. Sign in to your organization (https://dev.azure.com/{Your_Organization}).

  2. Select New project.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

A: If you receive an error message that states you don't have permission to create a project, you need to request organization-level permissions. See Change permissions at the organization- or collection-level.

A: If you receive an error message that states you don't have permission to create a project, you need to request collection-level permissions. See Change permissions at the organization or collection-level. If you have SQL Reporting Services installed in the collection, you also need permissions for reports to the Team Foundation Content Managers group.

Q: How do I resolve Error TF30321?

A: Error TF30321: The name you entered is already used for another project on the Team Foundation Server indicates that you should use a different name for your project. The name you entered is either in active use or is partially deleted, but not fully deleted.

Even when you deleted a project, you might get the same name error. Some components could be created or deleted even though others aren't. In this event, you can't reuse the name associated with the project.

Q: How do I add my custom process template to the list?

A: Upload your template using the Process Template Manager. For more information, see Customize process.

Q: Where is the log file located?

A: The log file is stored in $:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\Temp and labeled vso_TeamProjectCreation_yyyy_mm_dd_hh_mm_ss.log.

The log shows each action taken by the wizard at the time of the failure and might include more details about the error. You can review the log entries to find network or file related issues by searching for Exception or Error.

Q: How do I add SQL Server Reporting services?

A: See Add reports to a project.
