Creating a service connection to access non-private AKS cluster is straight forward, however if i want to create service connection for private AKS cluster is it possible from Azure Devops?
You can create New Kubernetes service connection using the KubeConfig option and click the dropdown arrow to choose Save without Verification

I have impleted this solution in my place, we had private aks , we where unable to make service connection from azure devops to azure kubeneted,
we created a self hosted linux agent in the subnet where kubenetes is and add used my agent to run build and release pipeline

I am using azure devops to run my pipeline using yml file and i use self hosted agent to run my pipeline on it.
I need to use the azure environment to connect my private cluster to monitor pods and my app.
can i achieve that ?
if yes how to do that?

We are trying to deploy application to the provisioned private aks cluster using terraform in Azure devops, when we try to deploy helm or access the cluster we are getting error.

As you did not provided much information, i will do my best to help you:
It seems that the user or Service principal that is running the pipeline has permissions on subscription level to create the AKS but not enough permissions to create anything inside Kubernetes.
You can leverage RBAC, Azure AD & Azure RBAC with your Kubernetes. With Terraform you can specify admin_group_object_ids inside the azure_active_directory_role_based_access_control block. Just assign the group there and add the pipeline User / SP to that group.
Alternative you can use Azure build-in roles like Azure Kubernetes Service Cluster Admin Role and add your User / SP there.
I am currently using EKS private cluster with a public API server endpoint in order to use Azure DevOps environments(with Kubernetes service connection).
I have a requirement to make everything private in EKS.
Once EKS becomes private, it breaks everything in Azure DevOps as it is not able to reach the API server.
Any suggestion on how to communicate private kubernetes API server with azure devops would be appreciated.
If you're trying to target the cluster for deployment, you need a self-hosted agent that has a network route to your cluster.
The other capabilities exposed by the environment feature of Azure DevOps (i.e. monitoring the state of the cluster via the environment view) will not work -- they require a public-facing Kubernetes API to work.
If you don't mind the additional cost, VPN can be used to establish connection to the private EKS cluster.
I would like to connect to AKS API from a script on Azure VM inorder to scrape some metrics, check some stats, etc of the cluster.
Is there any approach (like an Azure policy or role and attaching it to VM) other than creating an user in azure AD or a service account in the AKS with clusterRole bound to it and referencing the certs/tokens from VM?
Thank you
To deploy services via Azure Devops to my kubernetes cluster, I need to create a Kubernetes Service Connection manually. I want to automate this by creating the service connection dynamically in Azure DevOps so I can delete and recreate the cluster and deployment. Is this possible? How can I do this?
you can create the service endpoint using the azure devops api,
