Solution: You may encounter this error when you are trying to view/edit an Release or an Stage. The issue is User doesn’t have permissions to view/edit a certain Release Definition/Stages/Environments etc.,. Incase you get an error like this, go the Release Definition for which user doesn’t have permissions and then change the permissions for the below ones to “Allow”

  • View Release Pipeline
  • View Releases
  • Edit Release Pipeline
  • Manage releases
  • Edit Release Stage

If you are not the Org Administrator(Project Collection Administrator) , ask your Project Collection Administrator to change any of the above permissions.
