Prerequisites:
2. Select the **Azure DevOps** option.

3. Configure the **Source** from where secrets should be retrieved, then click **Next**.

- **Environment**: The project environment to retrieve secrets from.
- **Secret Path**: The folder path to retrieve secrets from.
<Tip>
If you need to sync secrets from multiple folder locations, check out [secret imports](/documentation/platform/secret-reference#secret-imports).
</Tip>
4. Configure the **Destination** to where secrets should be deployed, then click **Next**.

- **Azure DevOps Connection**: The Azure DevOps Connection to authenticate with.
- **Project**: The Azure DevOps project to deploy secrets to.
<p class="height:1px"/>
5. Configure the **Sync Options** to specify how secrets should be synced, then click **Next**.

- **Initial Sync Behavior**: Determines how Infisical should resolve the initial sync.
- **Overwrite Destination Secrets**: Removes any secrets at the destination endpoint not present in Infisical.
<Note>
Azure Devops does not support importing secrets.
</Note>
- **Key Schema**: Template that determines how secret names are transformed when syncing, using `{{secretKey}}` as a placeholder for the original secret name.
- **Auto-Sync Enabled**: If enabled, secrets will automatically be synced from the source location when changes occur. Disable to enforce manual syncing only.
- **Disable Secret Deletion**: If enabled, Infisical will not remove secrets from the sync destination. Enable this option if you intend to manage some secrets manually outside of Infisical.
6. Configure the **Details** of your Azure DevOps Sync, then click **Next**.

- **Name**: The name of your sync. Must be slug-friendly.
- **Description**: An optional description for your sync.
7. Review your Azure DevOps Sync configuration, then click **Create Sync**.

8. If enabled, your Azure DevOps Sync will begin syncing your secrets to the destination endpoint.
