Learn how to grant permissions for publishing or updating extensions for users or groups.

To grant permissions for publishing or updating to users or groups, use TFSSecurity command-line tool.

  1. At the server level, create a group, for example, "TFS Extension Publishers":

    tfssecurity /gcg "TFS Extension Publishers" "publishers who can manage extensions for the server" /server:ServerURL

  2. Grant access to the "TFS Extension Publishers" group to manage extensions:

    tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" CreatePublisher n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL
tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" PublishExtension n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL
tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" UpdateExtension n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL
tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" DeleteExtension n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL

    For Team Foundation Server "15" RC2 or earlier, use this syntax:

    tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" Create n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL
tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" Publish n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL
tfssecurity /a+ Publisher "//" Write n:"[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" allow /server:ServerURL

  3. Add existing users and groups to the "TFS Extension Publishers" group.

    tfssecurity /g+ "[TEAM FOUNDATION]\TFS Extension Publishers" n:User /server:ServerURL

You can add users later to "TFS Extension Publishers". This permission is a server-level permission, so updating and deleting an extension affects all the project collections that use the extension.
