Azure DevOps Unable to 'Disable Forks' using CLI or REST API

[omerzubair]

I went through CLI documentation to find a switch to 'Disable/Enable Fork' . Similarly looked at the REST API reference but could not find it. I need this to disable forking in all of my git repos in the AzDo project

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/repos/git/repository-settings?view=azure-devops&tabs=azure-devops-cli#enable-forks

Adding Service Team to look into the devops related issues.

@v-anvashist, @V-hmusukula Could you please look into this issue and provide an update ?

[v-anvashist]

@omerzubair We need to forward this issue to API team.

Can you please share the complete command syntax for the same?

Thanks,
Anjali

went through CLI docume

Hi @v-anvashist , there is no doco, API or cmdlet to share as I could not find it.

[v-anvashist]

@omerzubair We will forward this issue to API team and update the same if we will get any response from them.

Hi @omerzubair, we received response from API team, and we do not have ability to set this option neither through the CLI (az repos) nor through the REST API.
Thanks!
