Azure-devops-docs: `@fabrikam:registry=<your feed URL>` doesn't work

[sdshou]

When I did the change "@fabrikam:registry=<your feed URL>" in .npmrc file, then "npm publish", it reports login issue. Then if I delete the "@fabrikam:", it published successfully.

I don't understand what does the "scopes" here mean actually. The npm package already can have a scope in package name in package.json. Are they the same thing?

Same issue here - am I missing any additional configuration to use scoped registries or is this a bug in the authentication?

Add @fabrikam namespace to your app name in package.json
{ "name": "@fabrikam/package-name" }
