Try this:

 

  1. Get the PAT details: Use the GET method to retrieve details about the PAT. This will help you verify if the PAT is valid.
    GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/_apis/tokens/pats/{patId}?api-version=7.1-preview

     

    Replace {organization} with your Azure DevOps organization name and {patId} with the ID of the PAT you want to verify.
  2. Check the response: The response will include details about the PAT, such as its validity and the associated user. If the PAT is valid, you will get the user information in the response.
