How to Install Azure Artifacts Packages dependencies in Vs Code? - visual-studio-code

Question

How to Install the Azure Artifacts Packages in VS Code, I tried to check the Connect to feed option and found there are multiple Nuget options like Dotnet, Nuget.exe, and Visual Studio, etc.
But when I am trying for VS Code then it's not working.
What I did so far in the VS Code?
1 Approach) I install the NuGet package manager and when I am trying to do search my package then it's not showing in the list. but using this command "Get-PackageSource" I am able to see the package in the console.
2 Approach) I created one nuget.config file and mentioned below the package details
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<clear />
<add key="test#Release" value="https://xxxxxxx.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/test/nuget/v3/index.json" />
</packageSources>
</configuration>'
after that running NuGet restore command and below giving the output but I didn't see any dependencies in the project and the same thing working fine using Visual Studio 2017
NuGet Config files used:
C:\Users\sudhir\source\repos\testPrivateNugetFeed\NuGet.Config
C:\Users\sudhir\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config
C:\Program Files (x86)\NuGet\Config\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Offline.config
C:\Program Files (x86)\NuGet\Config\Xamarin.Offline.config
Feeds used:
`https://XXXXX.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/test/nuget/v3/index.json'
All projects are up-to-date for restore.
I have also followed this thread

How to Install Azure Artifacts Packages dependencies in Vs Code?
I could reproduce this issue on my side, it seems to be a limitation of the NuGet package manager extension or Visual Studio Code.
No matter how I set up my Nuget.config file, I could not see the custom nuget package from the Azure devops feed in the NuGet package manager extension. I also test any other extension like NuGet Gallery, but not success.
To resolve this issue, I add following nuget.config file in my project, which next to my .sln file：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="AzureDevOpsFeed" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<MyORGName>/_packaging/<MyFeedName>/nuget/v3/index.json" />
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
</packageSources>
<config>
</config>
<packageSourceCredentials>
<AzureDevOpsFeed>
<add key="Username" value="LeoTest" />
<add key="ClearTextPassword" value="My PAT Here" />
</AzureDevOpsFeed>
</packageSourceCredentials>
</configuration>
And add following in my packages.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<packages>
<package id="LibA" version="1.0.0" targetFramework="net461" />
</packages>
The LibA is a custom package in my Azure decops feed:
Then I use nuget.exe to restore the package for my project:
If nuget restore not work for you, please share the log for that command.
