Hi All, I am having the same issue when i try to login into azure devops using az devops login --org https://dev.azure.com/{ORGNAME} From within azcli container…But its working locally…Any additional changes needs to be done in the container?? This is the ouput.

Failed to store PAT using keyring; falling back to file storage. You can clear the stored credential by running az devops logout. Refer https://aka.ms/azure-devops-cli-auth to know more on sign in with PAT.

@BenjaminHerbert : This error is coming from keyring library which we use for credentials management. Will need some more information please run

pip uninstall keyring (this might fail, ignore failure)
pip install keyring~=17.1.1

Then in a file named something like temp.py add this code

import keyring

def _only_builtin(backend):
    return (
        backend.__module__.startswith('keyring.backends.') and
        'chain' not in backend.__module__
    )

keyring.core.init_backend(_only_builtin)
print('Keyring backend : %s', keyring.get_keyring())

old_token = keyring.get_password('fake key', 'Personal Access Token')
if old_token is not None:
    keyring.delete_password('fake key', 'Personal Access Token')
keyring.set_password('fake key', 'Personal Access Token', 'fake token')

Try running this file using python temp.py Let us know if temp.py is working fine or not and share error in case of any
