Does anyone knows what configuration I am missing here?

Answer 1

Make sure you have your Azure AD tenant connected to the Azure DevOps organization. By default Azure DevOps organization is connected to the Microsoft Directory, Make sure you change your Azure DevOps org from Microsoft to your Azure AD Default directory connected to your Azure subscription.

Azure AD Default directory connected to Azure DevOps successfully like below:-

I had this problem when trying to connect a repository to an Azure Data Factory. I could fix this problem by changing my user type from Guest to Member in Microsoft Entra ID (See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/accounts/faq-azure-access?view=azure-devops#how-can-i-convert-an-azure-ad-guest-into-a-member).
