I hope someone is able to guide me in the right direction.
I am trying to implement the following:
Event Grid -> Function App -> Storage Account
I am also trying to implement the above through ARM templates and Azure DevOps deployment, but I am a bit confused on how to add the Event Grid Bindings to my Function App (.Net) code Files in Azure Repos.
I know in the documentation it says that i need to install the Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventGrid" NuGet package, but how is this done through Azure DevOps?
Currently my Release Pipelines are set up as follows:
1) Deploy Function App, Storage Account, Event Grid
2) Deploy Function App Code
3) Get Master Key of function app
4) Create Event Grid Subscription.
Tasks 1-3 execute correctly, but (4) fails with "URL endpoint validation failed" - which im guessing is because I havent installed Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventGrid packages correctly in my functions files in Azure repos.
When i set everything up manually and install the Event Grid trigger in the portal, I can easily create the Event Grid Subscription without issues.
How do I 'install' Event Grid Trigger NuGet Packages in Azure DevOps if my Function App code is in Azure Repos?
Much Appreciated.

Just as answered in this thread, you need to add a dotnet restore task to restore the package and a .NET Core build task to build the extensions project before archive files.
Besides, we can install and use Event Grid Subscription Extension to create and modify event grid subscriptions in Azure DevOps pipeline.
Below blogs for your reference, hope that helps :

I'm building Azure Function (Premium plan) with Private endpoint.
As I'm using private endpoint, function is not available from the public internet / MSFT managed Cloud pipelines.
Now, idea was to use Deployment Center in Function App to enable CI/CD, but I'm failing to find a way how to script configuration of Deployment Center.
Is there even a way to setup Deployment Center configuration outside of Azure Portal? Using Bicep or Powershell? Essentially, something which will map repository/branch/build pipeline with given slot.
It will be weird to have completely automated process for deployment of infrastructure and then to go there and manually update deployment configuration for each subscription/stage.
you can use github actions to deploy the function, but you have to connect the github to the function through the deployment center.
This is simple process where in deployment center just select github under source and connect the github repository by Loging in the github account.
Another solution would be to use visual studio like tool to directly deploy from to development environment.
Also, you can containerize the function and deploy the container.
Refer the following documentation on all the ways of deployment to the azure.
I have 2 .NET 5 Azure Function Visual Studio projects . These 2 Functions to be deployed in a single Azure Function App.
I have 2 separate Build Pipelines for each of the projects and have separate Release Pipelines as well in Azure DevOps. I am not using YAML for release pipelines but depends on DevOps UI to choose a new Release pipeline.
My issue is that whenever running the Release pipeline, the last Release overrides the existing Function in Azure Function App. So, I am not getting 2 Functions as expected under a single Azure Function App. Always the last release deployment exists in Azure. Why one release deployment overrides existing Functions, even though they are from different Release pipelines?
In the MS documentation it states that if you perform a "Zip Deployment" to an Azure Function, it will always overwrite what is running on the Azure Function Service. I presume that the "Classic Pipeline" gives you the "Zip Deployment" option.
Link to MS Documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/deploy/azure-function-app?view=azure-devops#deployment-methods
For the moment, I do have a ticket open at Microsoft on how to manage different apps on the same Azure Function service. I only want changes made to the specific app where there are code changes without impacting any other existing apps on the Azure Function. For now, I only had one troubleshooting session with no solution in sight. I will share more information once I have received a solution/workaround.
I don't know where else to ask this question so would appreciate any help or feedback. I've been reading the SDK documentation for azure machine learning service (in particular azureml.core). There's a class called Pipeline that has methdods validate() and publish(). Here are the docs for this:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/python/api/azureml-pipeline-core/azureml.pipeline.core.pipeline.pipeline?view=azure-ml-py
When I call validate(), everything validates and I call publish but it seems to only create an API endpoint in the workspace, it doesn't register my pipeline under Pipelines and there's obviously nothing in the designer.
My question: I want to publish my pipeline so I just have to launch from the workspace with one click. I've built it already using the SDK (Python code). I don't want to work with an API. Is there any way to do this or would I have to rebuild the entire pipeline using the designer (drag and drop)?
Totally empathize with your confusion. Our team has been working with Azure ML pipelines for quite some time but PublishedPipelines still confused me initially because:
what the SDK calls a PublishedPipeline is called as a Pipeline Endpoint in the Studio UI, and
it is semi-related to Dataset and Model's .register() method, but fundamentally different.
TL;DR: all Pipeline.publish() does is create an endpoint that you can use to:
schedule and version Pipelines, and
re-run the pipeline from other services via a REST API call (e.g. via Azure Data Factory).
You can see PublishedPipelines in the Studio UI in two places:
Pipelines page :: Pipeline Endpoints tab
Endpoints page :: Pipeline Endpoints tab
Let's assume that we have 3 different container registries. Is there any available azure devops jobs/tasks that can provide a way to trigger my build pipeline when a new image is pushed on any of these 3 registries?
I have some insights with MS Flow but i want to limit the scope on azure devops.
Find a way or recommendation to trigger the build pipeline using devops jobs/tasks.
You can create in Azure Container Registry a web hook that trigger the build in Azure DevOps when new image pushed.
For this you need to write a service with Web API that handle the API Post calls. the ACR web hook send a Post call to the service when new image is pushed.
In the service you trigger the Azure DevOps build pipeline using the Azure DevOps .Net Libraries (if the service is in C#) or with Azure DevOps Rest API.
How to create ACR Web Hook? find here.
How to trigger build pipeline from code? find here.
you can have releases triggered with new images in the docker hub (reading). I dont think the same can be done for builds. You can create a release that would get triggered on the new image and that release would talk to the API to trigger the build.
Is it possible to trigger an VSTS/TFS build based on the condition if a blob in a storage account is updated?
I tried to create a function app, but with little to no result, I cannot trigger a VSTS/TFS build.
Easiest solution (from my understanding) will be to use a logic app:
Create a logic app that is triggered whenever a blob is added/updated into a specific container.
Queue a VSTS build
NOTE
your VSTS account should have "Third-party application access via OAuth" enabled. (Go to Administration > Control panel > Settings page)
According to the official docs, it is possible to:
...start a function when a new or updated blob is detected. The blob contents are provided as input to the function.
Then, the only thing the Azure function should do it to queue a build in VSTS with the help of REST API. You might also want to check the Getting Started page of VSTS REST API docs - it contains the basic samples to quickly get up to speed.
