@jhockett the issue should be resolved now

[jhockett]

I can confirm it's working, thanks so much for the quick reply and fix!

[CharlesNadolskiNtrs]

It looks like the issue "DotNetCoreCLI@2 restore broken for custom MsBuild SDKs" was regressed when migrating from /usr/share/dotnet/sdk/3.1.301/MSBuild.dll to /usr/share/dotnet/sdk/3.1.302/MSBuild.dll in azure pipelines. Same situation and error is happening even though it was resolved before, as documented here:
microsoft/azure-pipelines-tasks#10498
which is related to issue:
NuGet/Home#8183

EDIT:
I reverted our build to use SDK 3.1.301 instead of 3.1.302 and the issue persists. Some other change to Azure Pipelines is likely to have regressed this issue, and it may not be related to the SDK being updated.

[CharlesNadolskiNtrs]

Workaround for anybody who has run into the same problem as myself in the past week, apparently this task is required for any Azure Pipeline task which needs to read from a NuGet feed for a project which has a custom SDK:

• task: NuGetAuthenticate@0

Closing in favor of #5057
