Deploying Data Pipelines with Dev Ops

sammydyson55 — Mon, 09 Jun 2025 15:09:25 GMT

I am currently trying to deploy Data Pipelines in Devops and having access issues, I have setup a service principal account which has full access to Devops as well as full admin privileages to my test workspaces and when I run the deployment pipeline I get the following error

Unhandled error occurred calling POST on {Link to workspace} Message: User does not have access to the connection used in the Pipeline. Please verify the user's permissions..

The data pipeline only contains a meta data activity that points to an external azure container to which my service principal account has Data Owner privelages

All my other items, Reports, Notebooks, Lakehouses dont have any issues while deploying

Any help is appreciated!

Share the connection with the service principal and grant “Can Use” permissions
