Can I reuse my Azure DevOps agents with Azure Automation?

My VMs all have Azure DevOps agents installed on them to automate deployments. We have a need to automate runbook tasks on these agents as well, and are investigating Azure Automation as a solution.
However, I would prefer not to have to install two agents on every VM. Is there a way to have Azure Devops and Azure Automate share an agent on a single VM?
I suppose that you could test to create a combination with Azure DevOps and Azure Automation.
And the key to for the integration is creating a service connection from Azure DevOps to Azure Resource Manager.
And you could try to finish your Azure Automation Deployment with Azure Powershell task in a release pipeline.
And you could refer to this blog for more detailed instructions. USING AZURE DEVOPS PIPELINES WITH AZURE AUTOMATION

How can I export variable groups from Azure Devops

I need to export variable groups from one azure devops to another azure devops project. How can I do this?
The UI of Azure DevOps doesn't provide such a functionality. This blog explains how to do it using Azure CLI and the Azure DevOps extension for Azure CLI. If you're new to the (Azure DevOps extension for) Azure CLI, then please read my blog to learn how set it up.

This got resolved after using the Azure Dev Ops 2020.1 server and the same version migration tool.

Best way to create CI/CD pipeline for GCP BigQuery using Azure DevOps

I am looking for the best way to create CI/CD pipeline for GCP BigQuery using Azure DevOps.
I need repositories in Azure Devops, and automatically have CI and CD to our Dev/QA and PROD environments in GCP. Also, how to set up automatic builds in Azure DevOps for GCP master branch code? Is there a way to integrate BigQuery and Azure Devops repositories ?
We have to use Azure DevOps for Project, repository and pipeline management. So trying ways to build and deploy to GCP Bigquery from Azure Devops. Any insights would be helpful.
First of all congratulations on your first post.
Yes definitely you can integrate Azure Devops with BigQuery.
A good read here.
But from your question, I failed to understand what you are trying to deploy. Is it some client code which will connect to BQ to run query and fetch data or is it a Dataflow job starting from ingesting data?
There are different ways to do each of them.

Team Foundation Version Control using Azure DevOps Services and Azure DevOps Server

I was wondering if it's possible to have TFVS using Azure DevOps Services or TFVS using Azure DevOps Server. Which one is better and how to connect TFVS using Azure DevOps Server. I have experience in connecting it with Azure DevOps Services but I'm wondering the differences with Azure DevOps Server. Thank you
Yes, it's possible; TFVC is exactly the same between the two. You connect to a TFVC repo in Azure DevOps exactly the same way you'd connect to an on-prem instance.
