The only way to Get the list of Files available in Azure Repo is Rest API call. For this we have to use the PowerShell.

List All Repos

Used to retrieve the Repos

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories?api-version=5.1

# With Optional Parameter
GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories?includeLinks={includeLinks}&includeAllUrls={includeAllUrls}&includeHidden={includeHidden}&api-version=5.1

Get Files

It Get the content of Single item. Download parameter is used to check whether we can download the content or not.

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories/{repositoryId}/items?path={path}&api-version=5.1

# With Optional Parameter
GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories/{repositoryId}/items?path={path}&scopePath={scopePath}&recursionLevel={recursionLevel}&includeContentMetadata={includeContentMetadata}&latestProcessedChange={latestProcessedChange}&download={download}&$format={$format}&versionDescriptor.versionOptions={versionDescriptor.versionOptions}&versionDescriptor.version={versionDescriptor.version}&versionDescriptor.versionType={versionDescriptor.versionType}&includeContent={includeContent}&resolveLfs={resolveLfs}&api-version=5.1
