Traditionally, Microsoft Entra access tokens in Azure DevOps are valid for up to an hour, meaning that even after a user\u2019s account is disabled or a password is changed, access may persist until the token expires. CAE changes that.<\/p>\n<p>With CAE, Azure DevOps can <strong>revoke access quickly<\/strong> after critical events occur, such as:<\/p>\n<p>User deletion or disablement<br \/>\nPassword changes or resets<br \/>\nAdmin-triggered token revocations<br \/>\nMulti-factor Authentication enablement<br \/>\nIP\/location changes<\/p>\n<p>This is achieved through a two-way conversation between Entra and Azure DevOps, allowing for access-time policy enforcement rather than relying solely on enforcement at time of token issuance. Real-time enforcement means that compromised accounts or policy violations are addressed as soon as we learn of the event, reducing exposure windows and improving incident response. (See <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/entra\/identity\/conditional-access\/concept-continuous-access-evaluation\" target=\"_blank\">Microsoft Entra documentation<\/a> for any expected considerations and latency per critical event.)<\/p>\n<p>These changes are now rolling out across the Azure DevOps web platform and ought to be available by end of August.<\/p>\n<h2> What\u2019s Changing for Developers?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re using our latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nuget.org\/packages\/Microsoft.TeamFoundationServer.Client\/20.259.0-preview\">.NET client library<\/a>, you\u2019ll need to <strong>handle CAE rejections gracefully<\/strong>. When a token is rejected, the client will receive a 401 Unauthorized response with a <strong>claims challenge<\/strong>. Your app must extract the challenge, fetch a new token, and retry the request. CAE is expected to arrive in our Python and Go client libraries by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/entra\/identity-platform\/claims-challenge?tabs=dotnet\">claims challenges<\/a> in the Entra documentation.
