Connecting TeamCity to VSO with Alternate creds disabled.
Hi there,
I'm exploring setting up TeamCity for a new project, and connecting to a VSO account. For security reasons beyond my control, alternate credentials are disabled for this VSO project. Given that, is there still a way to connect TeamCity to this project?

Hi Brandon,
No, it is not possible in TeamCity now. Please watch and vote for the related feature request - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/TW-37903.
I've been able to enable alternate credentials for some temporary tests, but am still unable to connect. Browsing older issues, it appears spaces in URL's used to be a problem, my current conjecture is that there is a dash "-" character in our repository URL, could it be possible that this is what is preventing me from creating a new project? No matter what I do, the error i receive is "Cannot create a project using the specified URL. The URL is not recognized."
Did you specify URL to your Visual Studio Online project’s in the following format https://accountname.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/$/ProjectName?
