Disabling Creation of Classic Pipeline in Azure DevOps

Azure DevOps has introduced new toggle which can be used to disable classic pipeline creation in team projects. If your organization decided to use only YAML pipelines, you can use this feature. It will disable classic build pipelines, classic release pipelines, task groups and deployment groups from Azure DevOps.

Before enable the toggle, you would be able to see the option to create a new classic pipeline as shown in below.


Go to Organization setting page of Azure DevOps, click on settings under pipelines section. You would be able to find a toggle to disable classic pipeline. 


Once enable the toggle, try to create a new pipeline. You wouldn't find the classic pipeline creation link as before. Also, if there isn't any existing deployment group or task group, those will be removed from the Azure DevOps. 

After disabling classic pipeline creation, you cannot create any new classic release pipelines, however, you can edit and use existing classic release pipelines.


You can disable classic pipeline creation either in organization level or in team project level as required.
