Pull request overview
This PR updates the VMR synchronization pipeline to stop using an Azure DevOps PAT variable group and instead use a federated (WIF) token when syncing internal VMR branches, aligning with the move toward managed identity / federated auth.
Changes:
- Switch
vmr-sync.shinvocation to use$(AzdoToken)instead of thedn-bot-all-orgs-code-rPAT variable. - Remove the
DotNetBot-AzDO-PATvariable group reference from the internal/release job path. - Add a step to mint an AzDO access token via
/eng/common/templates-official/steps/get-federated-access-token.yml(outputtingAzdoToken).
