Azure DevOps Environments EXPLAINED

Let's start our journey into Azure DevOps Environments. And check the other video on Kubernetes Environments with Azure Pipelines below.

Azure Pipelines is a great tool for doing Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment, and now we can target Environments during the Release phase.

The question is: why should I use an environment to deploy my application?

Let's answer that together.

Excellent presentation. Clear explanation.

[Chatsworth]

SUBSCRIBED! You've got some great vids, thanks so much for uploading all the tech info, like candy to a kid in a tech store. : - )

[bizulk]

Thanks for this presentation. I have been in trouble to manage my build agent environnement (SDK). To deploy it, I used a stage in my build pipeline executed on condition. It seems that even my build agent are physical I can use it to manage the pool deployment with the advantage of traceability. Do we manage those deploy management the same way as the others (I mean in a git repo) ?

Looking forward to the next video in the series

[nikko]

Hello, I add the environment in Yaml file as you described but I have the following "Unexpected property environment". what is missing?

[georgezviadgoglodze]

Great work Dave as usual. So technically speaking "Release Pipelines" are obsolete?

[PeterMolokwu]

Thanks for this video, made a lot of sense, just one question though, can you make a video on environment where the deployment target is a private AKS cluster? Tried connecting now got some errors.

[kathiravang.]

Thank you for devops series . Can you cover trigger portion as well with yaml . Something like when a image push to azure container registry, a trigger should be listening in yaml and then stage should run and finally deploy to K8 automatically. I know how to do that will classic ui. But looking to do same with YAML

[ReinaldoSerrao]

Ok, but how do I configure Environments with classic pipelines (GUI)? I have added the Deployment Agent but it does not have an element to specify the Environment.... How can I do it?

[maheshkandharkar]

I am using VMSS agent(windows) in my azure devops pipeline and it has powershell script to run the code but i am getting az-accounts module not found. how i can fix it your assistance much appreciated.

[pralay]

Hello Dave, I am a developer among team of 5. Each have a branch to work on. I need to deploy into certain VMs and test my code before raising a Pull Request to main branch. Should i create a personal pipeline then each member has to create multiple. Repeated pipeline or can we trick the common pipeline to jst create a environment

[saripallicreations]

Hi,
Can you show me how to create environment for Classic cli pipeline,
you did in Yaml please share a link which create for classic cli.

[joeb.]

Is a vm or kubernetes resource required for the YML release pipeline?

[tsaibabuu]

Did you find a way to create these environments by using CLI or REST API ?

[gregdvorkin]

Do you have a demo for associating Azure DevOps releases, release pipelines, etc, with Work items / Boards? How to utilize that setting "report results to work item or to boards'? Anyone else can help?
There are 2 links sections on Work Item form - Deployment and Development. It is more or less clear how data appear under "Development". I cannot reproduce the "Deployment" data.

[krishnaimadabattuni]

can you please explain about task group and variable groups?
