Azure Account extension that Azure Pipelines extension depends on for authentication will be deprecated in January 2025

Hello 👋,

Azure Account extension that Azure Pipelines extension depends on for authentication will be deprecated in January 2025. Please see microsoft/vscode-azure-account#964 for more details and migration guidance.

After taking a look at the extension, I believe it only relies on Azure Account for login, and listing subscriptions. If this is accurate, the migration should be pretty simple. You can either use the VS Code built-in Microsoft authentication API directly, or use our npm library that wraps VS Code's API.

Please reach out to me on Teams for questions or support.

Hi @alexweininger,
thanks for reporting! We are working on more prioritized issues at the moment, but will get back to this one soon.

The Azure Account extension login never worked for me, always ran into this error #590. Hopefully using the VS Code built-in authentication or whatever authentication is chosen will solve this.

Azure Pipelines extension still lists Azure Account extension as a dependency and will be uninstalled automatically with deprecated Azure Account.
