# Azure DevOps for ARM

### What is Azure DevOps? <a href="#what-is-azure-devops" id="what-is-azure-devops"></a>

Azure DevOps provides developer services for support teams to plan work, collaborate on code development, and build and deploy applications. Azure DevOps supports culture and set of processes that bring developers and project managers and contributors together to complete software development. It allows organizations to create and improve products at a faster pace than they can with traditional software development approaches.

### Setting Up Azure DevOps in AutoRABIT <a href="#setting-up-azure-devops-in-autorabit" id="setting-up-azure-devops-in-autorabit"></a>

This integration works for Azure DevOps Services and Azure DevOps Server.

To integrate Azure DevOps as a plugin in AutoRABIT, follow the below steps:

1. Log in to your AutoRABIT account.
2. From the AutoRABIT home page, click on the **Admin** module and go to the **My Account** tab.
