Cannot connect to azure nuget feed when creating a container

I have been trying to get docker to pull from a private nuget feed which is hosted within Azure Devops, but I consistently get a 401 unauthorized error. I have looked a numerous other answers and resources, but all of which have not helped. My dockerfile script is the following

# escape=`

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:3.1 AS build-env
WORKDIR /src
EXPOSE 80
EXPOSE 443

ARG FEED_URL
ARG FEED_ACCESSTOKEN

The error I get from Visual Studio is the following

From what I can tell in the link below; my dockerfile script should work

https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-docker/blob/master/documentation/scenarios/nuget-credentials.md#using-the-azure-artifact-credential-provider

To ensure it wasn’t an issue with the PAT of the user not having access, I gave them access to everything across the whole entire organisation. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Note #1: My current suspicion is that there are some additional parameters I might need to pass, since the private nuget feed is for a project rather than the entire organisation?

Note #2: I ran the following PowerShell command (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/artifacts/tutorials/private-powershell-library?view=azure-devops#package-and-publish-the-module) which worked fine, so I am even more confused to why my dockerfile script does not work.

nuget sources Add -Name "PowershellModules" -Source "https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<org_name>/_packaging/<feed_name>/nuget/v3/index.json" -username "<user_name>" -password "<personal_access_token(PAT)>"

Method 1

You can check out below workarounds without using NuGet credential plugin.

1, Use dotnet cli to add credentials to the nuget source in your docker file. And then pass the $PAT in the build arguments (ie. --build-arg PAT=$PAT ):

ARG PAT
COPY . .
RUN dotnet nuget add source "your-source-url" --name "source-name" --username "useless" --password "$PAT" --store-password-in-clear-text
RUN dotnet restore

2, You can also try adding the credentials to the config file using the nuget command. And include the nuget.config which has the credentials in the build context. And copy the nuget.config in your docker file . See below:

sources Add -Name "MyPackages" -Source "https://my.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/MyPackages/nuget/v3/index.json" -username any -password $PAT -ConfigFile Source/Nuget.config -StorePasswordInClearText

Copy the nuget.config in the docker file, You can delete the nuget.config file when the restore is complete:

COPY *.csproj .
COPY ./nuget.config .
RUN dotnet restore
RUN rm nuget.config

You can refer to my answer to this similar thread that using azure nuget feed in the docker container in Azure pipelines.
