Your second link provided a screenshot that a build definition with no tasks. It seems you had created a build definition successfully, but you didn't add tasks in the build definition.
Check your rest api to see whether you have "build": [] parameter with "task" in it as the following example shows:
"build": [
{
"enabled": true,
"continueOnError": false,
"alwaysRun": false,
"displayName": "Build solution **\\*.sln",
"task": {
"id": "71a9a2d3-a98a-4caa-96ab-affca411ecda",
"versionSpec": "*"
},
"inputs": {
"solution": "**\\*.sln",
"msbuildArgs": "",
"platform": "$(platform)",
"configuration": "$(config)",
"clean": "false",
"restoreNugetPackages": "true",
"vsLocationMethod": "version",
"vsVersion": "latest",
"vsLocation": "",
"msbuildLocationMethod": "version",
"msbuildVersion": "latest",
"msbuildArchitecture": "x86",
"msbuildLocation": "",
"logProjectEvents": "true"
}
},
{
"enabled": true,
"continueOnError": false,
"alwaysRun": false,
"displayName": "Test Assemblies **\\*test*.dll;-:**\\obj\\**",
"task": {
"id": "ef087383-ee5e-42c7-9a53-ab56c98420f9",
"versionSpec": "*"
},
"inputs": {
"testAssembly": "**\\*test*.dll;-:**\\obj\\**",
"testFiltercriteria": "",
"runSettingsFile": "",
"codeCoverageEnabled": "true",
"otherConsoleOptions": "",
"vsTestVersion": "14.0",
"pathtoCustomTestAdapters": ""
}
}
],
