I am struggling with this, a very very simple task in VSTS Online.

Here's what I want to accomplish:
Invite an external MSA account to have full access to one specific repository in my VSTS project.
That's all I want to do.

here's what I have done:
1. Created a VSTS Group called "External iOS Developers"
My thinking is that this group should have access to only 1 repository in our Project.

My invite process: I invite the MSA.

Problem 1. In the Users tab, I select the invited account and see that I can only choose between these VSTS Groups:

  • Custom
  • Project Readers
  • Project Contributors
  • Project Administrators

"Custom" seems to been have selected automatically.

Why can't I select my recently created VSTS group "External iOS Developers" here?

Problem:
- The invited account have access to all repositories.

How can I assign this invited user to have the VSTS Group "External iOS Developers" only?

Do you mean an account-level group? - Daniel Mann

When you invite users, just leave the Projects item empty:

Then go to the VSTS group "External iOS Developers" to add the user:
