was having the same error. fixed by setting Enable the

Allow scripts to access the OAuth token

on the pipeline phase per the instructions said. working fine now.

[NorthHighlandNicole]

Hello, can you please respond with the fix for this? There is no option to "allow scripts to access the OAuth token" in the classic pipelines and the documentation here does not list the inputs for the task. And when using the UI to edit the YAML there is also no option for "allow scripts to access the OAuth token".

Thank you.
