Azure DevOps - Custom Build Task Visibility

Question

I'm learning Azure DevOps. I'm interested in creating a custom build task. My question is, is it possible to create a private, custom build task? In other words, I only want my build task to be visible within my organization.

Is it possible to set custom build task visibility to certain scopes (i.e. project, groups, organization, etc.)?

Answer 1

You can manage tasks within an account with the tfx command line tool, including uploading your own. You don't need to publish an extension to the marketplace.

Beyond that, no. Tasks exist within an account, and you cannot control their visibility within an account.
