We currently use on on premise TFS server integrated with FinalBuilder to do our builds. We are considering the possibility of moving to the Azure hosted TFS service. Is this a scenario which would be supported by FinalBuilder?

Thanks

No, unfortunately not, it’s not possible (as far as I know at least) to install software on the hosted tfs solution.

Thanks Vincent,   
  
 To elaborate a little, we would still plan to use local build machines, connecting to the hosted TFS service. Therefore the main installation of Finalbuilder would continue to be on our local build machines. In our current environment the TFS server does not have FinalBuilder installed.   
  
 Does this change anything?   
  
 Thanks   
 Paul

If you have control over the build agents then this should work. Typically we have installed Finalbuilder on the TFS Server as well, but to my understanding you only really need it on the build agents.

In short this should work, we haven’t tested it ourselves.

  
Please let us know if you run into any issues.
