ServiceEndpointProxy activity on ADO Service Connection

The “ServiceEndpointProxy” activity you are seeing in Azure DevOps (ADO) Service Connection logs is background authentication traffic generated by Azure DevOps itself to validate and refresh the service principal associated with the connection. It does not necessarily mean a pipeline is actively using the connection. Deleting the service connection will only impact pipelines or features that rely on that service principal for access.
