**📋 Shared Instructions: [shared-instructions.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/shared-instructions.md)** - Cross-cutting concerns.
1. Check Memory Bank → 2. Add Connector → 3. Apply HttpRequest Fix → 4. Configure → 5. Build → 6. Update Memory Bank
---
Check for `memory-bank.md` per [shared-instructions.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/shared-instructions.md).
**First, find the connection ID** (see [connector-reference.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/connector-reference.md)):
Run the `/list-connections` skill. Find the Azure DevOps connection in the output. If none exists, direct the user to create one using the environment-specific Connections URL — construct it from the active environment ID in context (from `power.config.json` or a prior step): `https://make.powerapps.com/environments/<environment-id>/connections` → **+ New connection** → search for the connector → Create.
pa app add data-source --connector azuredevops -c <connection-id>
The generated code has a known issue: the `HttpRequest` method uses `parameters` as the parameter name, but the API expects `body`. Rename `parameters` to `body` in these 3 files:
Use the `Edit` tool to rename `parameters` to `body` in each file:
**1. `src/generated/services/AzureDevOpsService.ts`:** Find the `HttpRequest` method. Rename the parameter and its usage:
// BEFORE (generated):
async HttpRequest(parameters: any) {
const params = { parameters: parameters, ... };
// AFTER (fixed):
async HttpRequest(body: any) {
const params = { body: body, ... };**2. `.power/appschemas/dataSourceInfo.ts`:** Find the `visualstudioteamservices` → `HttpRequest` → `parameters` section. Rename the property key:
// BEFORE (generated):
HttpRequest: {
parameters: {
parameters: { ... }
// AFTER (fixed):
HttpRequest: {
parameters: {
body: { ... }**3. `.power/schemas/visualstudioteamservices/visualstudioteamservices.Schema.json`:** Find the `/{connectionId}/httprequest` → `post` → `parameters` array. Change the `name` field:
// BEFORE (generated):
{ "name": "parameters", "in": "body", ... }
// AFTER (fixed):
{ "name": "body", "in": "body", ... }Ask the user what Azure DevOps operations they need (query work items, create items, trigger pipelines, etc.).
**HttpRequest** -- make arbitrary ADO REST API calls:
await AzureDevOpsService.HttpRequest({
Uri: "https://dev.azure.com/{org}/{project}/_apis/wit/wiql?api-version=7.2",
Method: "POST",
Body: JSON.stringify({
query:
"SELECT [System.Id], [System.Title] FROM WorkItems WHERE [System.TeamProject] = @project"
})
});Docs: [Azure DevOps REST API](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/?view=azure-devops-rest-7.2)
Use `Grep` to find specific methods in `src/generated/services/AzureDevOpsService.ts` (generated files can be very large -- see [connector-reference.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/connector-reference.md#inspecting-large-generated-files)).
npm run build
Fix TypeScript errors before proceeding. Do NOT deploy yet.
Update `memory-bank.md` with: connector added, HttpRequest fix applied, build status.
