Client Returns undefined while checking get_feature_state_for_scope for new project

Start by reviewing the Python feature-management client and the get_feature_state_for_scope call shown in the issue, then compare its undefined response with the documented Azure DevOps feature-state behavior. Determine whether undefined is an expected inherited state or a client/API defect; done means documenting the behavior or identifying a reproducible change needed to return the correct state.

Hello Team,

I am using python API to check if there are some features enabled/disbaled at Project level e.g Repo's and Pipeline's.

Issue is that when a Private Project is created, everything is enabled by default. When I check the state for such projects it returns undefined

Below is the sample code and results:

    feature_client = connection.clients_v7_0.get_feature_management_client()
    repo: ContributedFeatureState = feature_client.get_feature_state_for_scope(feature_id='ms.vss-code.version-control', user_scope='host', scope_name='project', scope_value='<PROJECT_ID/NAME>')
    pipeline: ContributedFeatureState = feature_client.get_feature_state_for_scope(feature_id='ms.vss-build.pipelines', user_scope='host', scope_name='project', scope_value='<PROJECT_ID/NAME>')
    print(repo)
    print(pipeline)

Results:

{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-code.version-control', 
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x10f2c2580>, 
    'state': 'undefined'
}

{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-build.pipelines', 
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x10f2c2af0>,
    'state': 'undefined'
}

When I manually disable these features at Project level then it is able to identify them:

Disabled:

{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-code.version-control', 
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x1019d4580>, 
    'state': 'disabled'
}

{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-build.pipelines', 
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x1019d4af0>, 
    'state': 'disabled'
}

enabled back again:

{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-code.version-control',
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x1050d4580>, 
    'state': 'enabled'
}
{
    'additional_properties': {}, 
    'feature_id': 'ms.vss-build.pipelines', 
    'overridden': None, 
    'reason': None, 
    'scope': <azure.devops.v7_0.feature_management.models.ContributedFeatureSettingScope object at 0x1050d4af0>, 
    'state': 'enabled'
}

Can you please guide on this, shall we assume that if it is undefined it is enabled

Best
