Answer 1

Please review the pre-requisites, pay attention to the required permissions. You have to check that you have required permissions in both Azure DevOps and Entra AAD group

Azure DevOps -

You must be a member of the Project Collection Administrators group or the organization Owner to make the connection.

Azure Entra AAD -

Ensure that you exist in Microsoft Entra ID as a member. For more information, see how you can convert a Microsoft Entra ID guest into a member.

Then Connect your organization to Microsoft Entra ID

Make sure you are in the correct directory/tenant of Azure DevOps and Azure Entra ID. Selecting the correct tenant is crucial for successful connection.

Answer 2

Different with common user, you cannot add azure microsoft entra group from DevOps organization settings -> Users page.

Please follow the prerequisite instructions, make sure the DevOps is connected to correct Microsoft Entra ID, and your account grant correct permission. So that it can find the group from Microsoft Entra from DevOps.

You can add the azure microsoft entra group to exiting group following the doc above, or add from group rule.
