Hi
We've been asked to provide access for Microsoft VSTS to provision VMs on behalf of one of our vCloud tenants. I understand that VSTS has a vCenter endpoint capability but there's nothing I can find to allow it to talk to vCloud Director.
Has anyone had any experience with configuring VSTS access to vCloud, perhaps via REST API?
Thanks
Jonathan
Hi Johnathan,
Are you sure that you have the correct Microsoft product? VSTS is visual studio team services.
Im use from some time Visual Studio Code and powercli module for vCD... but not VSTS...
Hi Tom
Yes, VSTS as explained to me has the ability to manage the lifecycle of your test environment as well as your code - it can automatically provision VMs, deploy and test your release, then remove the environment afterwards.
There's a vCenter connector (VMware Resource Deployment - Visual Studio Marketplace) that allows basic operations (create/delete, start/stop, snapshot) that the team were hoping to use so I'm looking for a way to give them that functionality in a vCloud-friendly way.
Cheers
Jonathan
Hi Sebastian
If that would work with VSTS then that would be a great solution - I'll pass it back to the team for investigation.
Thanks
Jonathan
