[ivan-luxoft]

Hello,

I am get error when set parameters:

repositorySelectionMethod: select
projectId: 'CreatePR_FromOneToAnotherRepository'
gitRepositoryId: 'TargetOne'

where gitRepositoryId different from repository with source code for build screenshot (left repo for PR same as source code, right - different)

settings task:

If I change repo for source code, but not change another settings - task successful runs and PR created

Hi, can you run the pipeline with system.debug = true and share here the logs? Did you grant the permissions in the second project & repo?

[ivan-luxoft]

debug log for task attached log.txt

permissions was set for repositories on the project level, all repository in the same project

also I tried to give permissions of all types but it doesn't work

[shayki5]

Thank you! I can reproduce the issue. Look like my code support only forks repos from the same project, I will add a support also from other projects, I hope I will have time soon :)

[shayki5]

Wait, is it forked repo or just 2 different repos in 2 projects?

[ivan-luxoft]

it is two different repos, I want copy files from first to second, then commit second and create pullrequest (for purpose update libs or shared files)

I looked code and think that token can usage without call method Get-VstsEndpoint

[shayki5]

You can't create a PR for 2 different repos, even in the UI. this is how git works.

[ivan-luxoft]

I know it =) , I want copy files from the source repository to the target (locally on agent), then commit copying files to the target repo and created PR with commit changes in target repo

[shayki5]

Who should do the copy & commit? is it in your pipeline?

[ivan-luxoft]

yes, it is task/action/script in the pipeline

[shayki5]

can you share your full pipeline?

[ivan-luxoft]

I'm not implemented functional for copy and commit =) In this time I having trouble with creating PR for repository if build run not from him.

[shayki5]

I tried in my organization and I succeeded to create the PR for a repo that is different then the "get sources" repo. Can you try to give permissions also to the following groups?

[ivan-luxoft]

I set all permissions for these groups, also I add build service account in this group, but for me it is not working, I try it for another organization later

[shayki5]

Can you give me permissions to your organization? I will try to check it.

[ivan-luxoft]

I add you by email to the organization

[shayki5]

Thank you! Please grant permissions also to the user Project Collection Build Service (ivang0848):

[ivan-luxoft]

I added all permission, but previously I not seen this service account (and now I found it by search)

[shayki5]

I see it's still filed, very strange! Can you create a new pipeline and try there? or in another project?

[shayki5]

Try also to do this: Go to Organization _Settings-->under Security-->Permissions--> Project Collection Build Service Accounts-->Memebers-->Add -->Project Collection Build Service (ivang0848)

[AnshumanTripathy]

Have the same issue, have provided access to the Accounts as mentioned, still have 404. Trying to run the pipeline in a different Project 1. Is it possible to merge from Project 2 to Project 3(forked).

[shayki5]

@AnshumanTripathy When it forked repos it's impossible, I will add it soon! If it is not forked repos, just repo in another project are you success?

[shayki5]

@ivan-luxoft any news? are you able to create a PR?

[BGajda13]

@shayki5 I have the same issue. I've added all the needed permissions and also have a 404.

##[debug]Invoke-RestMethod : {"$id":"1","innerException":null,"message":"TF401019: The Git repository with name or identifier <GUID> does not exist or you do not have permissions for the operation you are attempting.","typeName":"Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Git.Server.GitRepositoryNotFoundException, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Git.Server","typeKey":"GitRepositoryNotFoundException","errorCode":0,"eventId":3000}

[shayki5]

@BGajda13 Are the repos in 2 different projects?

[BGajda13]

@shayki5 Repos are in the same project.

[shayki5]

So It should be OK, can you share a screenshot of the permissions you gave?

[BGajda13]

[shayki5]

@BGajda13 Try to give the permissions also to these users:

[daviegy]

Hi @shayki5, just following up on this thread as I faced similar issue. I have followed all the necessary steps to grant permission as recommended. But, I still get 404

[shayki5]

Hi @daviegy, are the branches in the same repo?
