Hi aMesquita_ ,

 

if I understood your scenario right, you want to manually trigger a pipeline run in your AzureDevOps Server from a computer in your network in some way.

 

I assume that the obvious choice of accessing the AzDOS Web GUI from that computer is something you are aware of, but you want something programmatic?

 

I know for sure that at the moment, Azure DevOps CLI is only available for AzDO Services. There is a PowerShell module available (provided by community, not MSFT) for managing AzDO/TFS, but I haven't found a cmdlet that would trigger a pipeline run on demand. You can check it out here.

 

Another (theoretical) option would be trying the REST API, that is available for AzDOS/TFS as well, but I couldn't find an example of triggering a pipeline using this method.
