Creating bulk items with AzureBoard RESTAPI - python-3.x

I am creating an integration with my application using python to Azure Board. I have completed the APIs till creating a single issue. Is it possible to create multiple pr bulk issues ? I do not find any link in the documentation or in in general information.
Is there a RestAPI to create bulk issues in Azure board like we have for jira?

Please see whether the following steps could do some help.
I run the rest api https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/wit/work%20items/create?view=azure-devops-rest-6.0 in Azure devops services-pipeline. This is the code:
- task: PowerShell#2
inputs:
targetType: 'inline'
script: |
$connectionToken="$(PAT)" #please add the PAT as variable in your pipeline
$base64AuthInfo= [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($connectionToken)"))
$url= 'https://dev.azure.com/{org name}/{project name}/_apis/wit/workitems/$workitemtype?api-version=6.0'
for($i=1; $i -le 100 ; $i++) {
Write-Host $i
$body=#"
[
{
"op": "add",
"path": "/fields/System.Title",
"value": "TestCreateWI"
}
]
"#
Write-Host "$url"
$response= Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -ContentType "application/json-patch+json" -Body $body -headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)} -Method POST
}
And after it finishes, you will see these work items in your boards:

Failing Azure DevOps build pipeline if the build has any warning

Hi There I have been asked to modify all current CI yml pipelines to fail if the C# API or WEB app has any warning, also it needs to be in its own stage in the process.
I have been looking on the net and can't find any code please can someone help with the code needed
thanks
There are two options for your reference.
1.You could add a PowerShell task in the stage, and then run the Rest API: Timeline - Get to traverse the warning messages in the previous task. And use logging commands to control the results.
PowerShell script:
$token = "PAT"
$url="https://dev.azure.com/{OrgName}/{ProjName}/_apis/build/builds/$(build.buildid)/timeline?api-version=5.0"
$token = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($token)"))
$count = 0
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Headers #{Authorization = "Basic $token"} -Method Get -ContentType application/json
ForEach( $issues in $response.records.issues )
{
if($issues.type -eq "warning")
{
echo $issues.Message
$count ++
}
}
echo $count
if($count -ne 0 )
{
Write-Host "##vso[task.complete result=Failed;]"
}
Pipeline Output:
2.Using Extension task: Build Quality Checks is another option.
Add this task to your target stage to check the warnings.

Azure devops release edit bulk 110

Hello I have 145 releases
And I have to do an equal action for everyone for example add a certain variable and edit a certain line.
Is there a way to control everyone with a script?
I checked for a template, but it creates the release from 0 and does not edit it.
Can a script in PS or Python be a solution? I did not find any information on Google about it, other than an export release template.
Azure devops release edit bulk 110
You could use the REST API Definitions - Update to update the release pipeline:
PUT https://vsrm.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/release/definitions/{DefinitionsId}?api-version=6.0
And if we want to batch modify the release pipeline, we need to get each ID of the release pipeline with REST API Definitions - List:
GET https://vsrm.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/release/definitions?api-version=6.0
Then we could iterate through each Rlease ID obtained.
I provide a rough code for your better reading:
$connectionToken="PAT"
$base64AuthInfo= [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($connectionToken)"))
$ReleasePipelineUrl = "https://vsrm.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/release/definitions?api-version=6.0"
Write-Host "URL: $ReleasePipelineUrl"
$ReleasePipelines = (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $PipelineUrl -Method Get -UseDefaultCredential -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)})
$ReleasePipelinesId = $ReleasePipelines.value.id
Write-Host "ReleasePipelinesId = $ReleasePipelinesId"
ForEach ($Pt in $ReleasePipelinesId)
{
$baseUrl = "https://vsrm.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/release/definitions/$($Pt)?api-version=6.0"
$pipeline = (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $baseUrl -Method Get -UseDefaultCredential -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)})
Write-Host "URL: $baseUrl"
$pipeline.variables.TestValue.value = "$buildNumber"
####****************** update the modified object **************************
$json = #($pipeline) | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 99
Write-Host "URL: $json "
$updatedef = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Put -Body $json -ContentType "application/json" -Headers #{Authorization = "Bearer $env:SYSTEM_ACCESSTOKEN"}
write-host "=========================================================="
Write-host "The value of Varialbe 'TestValue' is updated to" $updatedef.variables.TestValue.value
}

Integrate CI and CD together Azure Devops

we need your support on enabling continues deployment on our release pipeline .

We want to Integrate CI and CD together right now after Build release is not kicking automatically.
Since the azure devops service is on the cloud side and the azure devops server is local, there is no out-of-the-box feature that can Integrate CI/CD.
But you could use PowerShell task to run the Rest API in Azure Devops Service to trigger the Release on Azure Devops Server . Releases - Create
Here is an example:
You can add the Powershell Task to the end of the build, then you could add the following script in the powershell task:
$token = "PAT"
$url = "https://{instance}/{collection}/{project}/_apis/release/releases?api-version=5.0"
$token = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($token)"))
$JSON = #'
{
"definitionId": DefinitionID(e.g. 15),
"description": "Creating Sample release",
"artifacts": [],
"isDraft": false,
"reason": "none",
"manualEnvironments": null
}
'#
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Headers #{Authorization = "Basic $token"} -Method Post -ContentType application/json -body $JSON
If your CI/Build pipeline is running on self-hosted agent, you can directly add the powershell task at the same agent job.
If your build pipeline is running on Microsoft-hosted agent, you need to create a self-hosted agent and add additional agent job to run powershell script.
In this case, you also need to set the Dependencies.
Note: When running the rest api to trigger the azure devops server release, you need to ensure that they are in the same network range. So it needs self-hosted agent.
Update:
To define a stage, you could refer to the following doc and sample:
stages:
- stage: A
jobs:
- job: A1
pool:
name: Default
steps:
- script: echo
- stage: B
pool:
name: Default
jobs:
- job: B1
steps:
- task: PowerShell#2
inputs:
targetType: 'inline'
script: |
$token = "PAT"
$url = "https://{instance}/{collection}/{project}/_apis/release/releases?api-version=5.0"
$token = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($token)"))
$JSON = #'
{
"definitionId": ID,
"variables": {
"Version": {
"value": "$(Build.buildnumber)"
}
}
}
'#
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Headers #{Authorization = "Basic $token"} -Method Post -ContentType application/json -body $JSON
Update2:
In order to achieve a function similar to the system.accesstoken variable, you can try the following settings.
Step1: Create a variable in Azure Devops Service Build Pipeline and set it as variable:
Step2: PowerShell Task script:
- powershell: |
$url = "https://{instance}/{collection}/{project}/_apis/release/releases?api-version=5.0"
$token = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($env:TOKEN)"))
$JSON = #'
{
"definitionId": 38,
"variables": {
"Version": {
"value": "$(build.buildnumber)"
}
}
}
'#
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Headers #{Authorization = "Basic $token"} -Method Post -ContentType application/json -body $JSON

How to trigger a build from another build pipeline in azure devops

I have two build pipeline for two different projects.One is for building the actual project and another build pipeline for test automation. I want to automatically trigger the build pipeline of test automation once the actual project build succeed.
does there any possible way can i add one more task down to the actual build to trigger the test automation build, or suggest a possible way for the same.
Answers are much appreciable!!
You can use the "Build Completion" trigger in your second pipeline:
Additionally, you can add PowerShell script to queue another build from the parent build. Example:
$user = ""
$token = $env:SYSTEM_ACCESSTOKEN
$base64AuthInfo = [Convert]::ToBase64String([Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f $user,$token)))
$orgUrl = "$env:SYSTEM_COLLECTIONURI"
$teamProject = "$env:SYSTEM_TEAMPROJECT"
$buildBodyTemplate = "{`"definition`": {`"id`": <build_id>}}"
$restApiQueueBuild = "$orgUrl/$teamProject/_apis/build/builds?api-version=6.0"
function InvokePostRequest ($PostUrl, $body)
{
return Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $PostUrl -Method Post -ContentType "application/json" -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)} -Body $body
}
function RunBuild($buildId)
{
$buildBody = $buildBodyTemplate.Replace("<build_id>", $buildId)
Write-Host $buildBody
$buildresponse = InvokePostRequest $restApiQueueBuild $buildBody
Write-Host $buildresponse
}
RunBuild SECOND_BUILD_ID
Update SECOND_BUILD_ID to ID of your build definition with tests. Additionally, add access to the security token in the parent build:

Trigger Azure DevOps pipeline from another pipeline

I was looking at the azure triggers documentation and still not able to find an appropriate solution.
How during the execution of pipeline 1 can you trigger pipeline 2, wait for it to successfully finish or fail, and based on pipeline 2 results either continue execution of pipeline 1 or fail?
How during the execution of pipeline 1 can you trigger pipeline 2, wait for it to successfully finish or fail, and based on pipeline 2 results either continue execution of pipeline 1 or fail?
Trigger one pipeline after another, it will run your pipeline upon the successful completion of the triggering pipeline. We cannot use it to trigger pipeline 1 in the execution of pipeline 1.
As a workaround:
a. We can add task power shell and add script to call the REST API to queue the build.
$connectionToken="PAT"
$base64AuthInfo= [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($connectionToken)"))
$PipelineUrl = "https://dev.azure.com/{Org name}/{project name}/_apis/pipelines/{Pipeline ID}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1"
$body ="{
`"resources`":{
`"repositories`":{
`"self`":{`"refName`":`"refs/heads/master`"
}
}
}
}"
$Pipelines = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $PipelineUrl -ContentType "application/json" -Body $body -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)} -Method POST
b. Add task power shell and enter the code Start-Sleep -Seconds 1000 to sleep the pipeline 1
c. Add the task power shell in the pipeline 1 to get the pipeline 2 build result via the REST API, and set the result as env variable.
d. Configure the condition in the next task to check the env variable value. If the value is succeeded, continue run the pipeline 1
You are probably looking for something like this.
# this is being defined in app-ci pipeline
resources:
pipelines:
- pipeline: securitylib # Name of the pipeline resource
source: security-lib-ci # Name of the pipeline referenced by the pipeline resource
trigger:
branches:
- releases/*
- master
its right there in the link, you have linked, but in the sibling section of the docs. I am surprised you missed it.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/pipeline-triggers?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml
So here is my solution based on the suggestion above:
- task: PowerShell#2
displayName: Running second pipeline
inputs:
targetType: 'inline'
script: |
Write-Host "Triggering pipeline..."
$connectionToken= "$(PAT)"
$base64AuthInfo= [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($connectionToken)"))
$PipelineUrl = "https://dev.azure.com/YourOrganization/yourProject/_apis/pipelines/${{ parameters.pipelineId }}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1"
Write-Host "Pipeline url: $PipelineUrl"
$body ="{
`"resources`":{
`"repositories`":{
`"self`":{`"refName`":`"refs/heads/${{ parameters.branch }}`"
}
}
}
}"
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $PipelineUrl -ContentType "application/json" -Body $body -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)} -Method POST
Write-Host "Response: $response"
$BuildUrl = "https://dev.azure.com/YourOrganization/yourProject/_apis/build/builds/$($response.Id)?api-version=6.1-preview.6"
Write-Host $BuildUrl
$TimeoutAfter = New-TimeSpan -Minutes 15
$WaitBetweenPolling = New-TimeSpan -Seconds 10
$Timeout = (Get-Date).Add($TimeoutAfter)
do
{
$Response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $BuildUrl -ContentType "application/json" -Headers #{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)}
Write-Host $Response.status
Start-Sleep -Seconds $WaitBetweenPolling.Seconds
}
while ((($Response.status -eq "notStarted") -or ($Response.status -eq "inProgress")) -and ((Get-Date) -lt $Timeout))
if ($Response.result -ne "succeeded")
{
Write-Host $Response.result
exit 1
}
parameter for pipeline id: pipelineId: $(resources.pipeline.resource.pipelineId)
If you're ok with using extensions, the Trigger Build Task you can get in the marketplace should support all of your requirements.
It lets you trigger another pipeline, with an option to wait for it, and options about how to treat failures of that pipeline if you do wait. So you can use that to trigger a build, wait for it, and succeed / fail based on if the build succeeds / fails.
