The following steps will help you create a new Personal Access Token:
Navigate to the User Settings in the right corner of the navigation menu.
From the drop-down select Personal Access Tokens.
Click on the New Token button and generate a new personal access token with the following parameters:
Organisation: All accessible organizations or grant access to the particular Azure DevOps organisation.
Scopes: Read&Write to the Code.
Write access to the Code is required to create Azure DevOps branches or pull requests from Jira. If you do not intend to use this functionality, grant read-only access.
