3 years ago I solved this problem by switching authentication from OAuth to using a Personal Access Token.
PS: Wait for Build(s) task needed a PAT also. Otherwise: ##[error]Cannot read property 'definition' of null
Task version 3.1.7. Pipeline was triggered by a PR, and is running against a fork of the repo. Build being triggered is in the same project, and is being referenced by ID. If I change the reference to build name, it throws ##[error]Did not find any build definition with this name: BotBuilder-Samples-DotNet-CI-PR. Authentication is OAuth token.
If the pipeline is running against a branch which is not a fork, Trigger Build runs without error.
How can I overcome this problem?
Below is the complete log. Attached is a screen shot of the settings.
