Setting Variables, Environments, Approvals, and Checks
In the previous chapters, we created our first build pipeline by creating jobs and tasks for it and made a trigger to run a build pipeline automatically. This chapter will cover the next step in creating release pipelines. By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to create a release pipeline so that you can deploy an application on Azure. This involves setting up a variable group library and learning to add and use secret files for specific use cases, such as mobile application deployment.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Creating a service connection for Azure resources
- Creating a variable group library
- Uploading and managing a secret file
- Creating a release pipeline.
