Create a Personal Access Token in Azure
Personal access tokens (PATs) contain Azure credential information required when creating a new Azure connection in TFS4JIRA.
This page provides instructions for creating a personal access token.
PATs are created for specific Azure user accounts. We also recommend that you create a dedicated user account in Azure. This account should be granted the permissions required by TFS4JIRA.
