Azure DevOps - multiple repo checkout

Question

Scenario

• My code is one repository and all my dependencies is in another repo (another project) that I need to build my code.

Following is my azure-pipelines.yml

# File: azure-pipelines.yml

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

variables:
  phpVersion: 7.3

resources:
  repositories:
    - repository: myLibraries
      type: git
      name: myProject/libraries

steps:
- checkout: self
- checkout: myLibraries
  path: libraries

- script: |
    sudo update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php$(phpVersion)
    sudo update-alternatives --set phar /usr/bin/phar$(phpVersion)
    sudo update-alternatives --set phpdbg /usr/bin/phpdbg$(phpVersion)
    sudo update-alternatives --set php-cgi /usr/bin/php-cgi$(phpVersion)
    sudo update-alternatives --set phar.phar /usr/bin/phar.phar$(phpVersion)
    php -version
  displayName: 'Use PHP version $(phpVersion)'

When I run my pipeline, I got the following error:

Checkout of repository 'myLibraries' is not supported. Only 'self' and 'none' are supported.,Checkout of multiple repositories is not supported.
