Unable to uncheck 'Allow requestors to approve their own changes' under Completion options

I was not able to find the switch to be able to uncheck the "Allow requestors to approve their own changes". There is no switch for update policy.

$requiredReviewer = az repos policy required-reviewer create --blocking true --branch "main" --branch-match-type "exact" --enabled true --repository-id $($repositoryid) --required-reviewer-ids $reviewerGroupId --org $adoOrg --project $adoProject ` --message $reviewerMessage

I was not able to find the switch to be able to uncheck the "Allow requestors to approve their own changes". There is no switch for update policy.

$requiredReviewer = az repos policy required-reviewer create --blocking true --branch "main" --branch-match-type "exact" --enabled true --repository-id $($repositoryid) --required-reviewer-ids $reviewerGroupId --org $adoOrg --project $adoProject ` --message $reviewerMessage

After creating the policy I also tried this code by supplying the PolicyID but no luck.

az repos policy approver-count update --creator-vote-counts false --allow-downvotes false --blocking true --reset-on-source-push true --repository-id $repositoryId --org $adoOrg --project $adoProject --enabled true ` --policy-id 422

I get ERROR: A policy configuration's policy type cannot be changed once set.

[omerzubair]

similarly, this one needs attention from API team @v-anvashist?

[v-soujanya]

Hi @omerzubair, we dropped mail to API team and waiting for their response. we will get back to you once we received response from the API team.

Thanks!

[v-soujanya]

@omerzubair we received response from API team. They do have this covered in the REST API (Configurations - Create - REST API (Azure DevOps Policy) | Microsoft Docs). Parameter is named “creatorVoteCounts”. Can you check if this will be good enough?

[omerzubair]

Hi @v-soujanya , thanks for your response. I will certainly try and revert back. cheers

Hi, all! How can the creatorVoteCounts parameter be used in the AZ CLI to uncheck the "Allow requestors to approve their own changes"?

[gpolcode]

@gpolcode Hi, we are owning only Azure CLI service and right now with Az CLI we don't have feasibility for this request. Just to help here I have raised the concern to the API team and posted the response. we received response from API team.

Is there any update on this issue?

[DevDavido]

We also experience the same issue as the issue author: The AZ CLI lacks the CLI argument --creator-vote-counts {true, false} for command az repos policy required-reviewer create to enable or disable the completion option "Allow requestors to approve their own changes".
