The value of -ProjectName erroneously fails validation if the collection/account contains over 100 projects

[sevaa]

Steps to reproduce

Create 101 projects in a collection. Remember which one was the last one created.

powershell -Command Add-VSTeamVariableGroup -ProjectName TheLastProject -Name Temp -Variables @{a="a"} -Type Vsts

The exact nature of the command doesn't matter, all commands with -ProjectName are affected.

This has to do with the way project list validation works - it calls Get-VSTeamProject, and that one has an implicit limit of 100 records. Can be overridden with the -Top parameter, but the cache logic doesn't do that.

There is a workaround: set the env variable TEAM_PROJECTCOUNT to a high number.

Expected behavior

I expected that the command would not error out. As long as it does, I'd expect an error message that points at the root cause.

Actual behavior?

I had the following actual outcome: error,

Add-VSTeamVariableGroup : Cannot validate argument on parameter 'ProjectName'. 'TheLastProject' is invalid

On Which OS have you tried it?
