How to get the IP Address for Azure DevOps Hosted

Question

Is there a way to the IP address range for the hosted machine running?

This is related to the Release Pipeline -> Hosted agent.

Issue: Getting access denied on connection, as the connection is getting refused via Firewall. Need to whitelist the IP address range for this request coming from release pipeline on DevOps.

Answer 1

Use a script step in the pipeline to get the current external ip and whitelist it. after pipeline finishes use another script step to clean up.

Thats the only way (for hosted agent), unfortunately.

Answer 2

I have a step in a release that gets the Hosted Agent IP address in powershell with:

Invoke-RestMethod http://ipinfo.io/json | Select -exp ip

Hope that helps.

Answer 3

We need to white list the IP address used by the Azure Datacenters in the list mentioned below: https://www.microsoft.com/en-nz/download/details.aspx?id=41653
