Question

I created a build definition in vsts with npm build and then I copy the build folder to the drop location.

The build pipeline is working fine

Then I created the release definition and it downloads the files correctly also:

How can I copy all those files from the build folder (which are not in a .zip file) to Azure webapp?

Answer 1

In my case (build .sln with c# project from azure git) the build was saving the package in D:a1a folder (instead of r1a) and I wasn't able to edit the build steps in the UI so I edited the newly added azure-pipelines.yml file and added one more task at the very end:

- task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1

This copies the .zip package to a "drop" location (r1/a) which the Release Pipeline expects.

?And now the Release Pipeline is finding the file in r1/a folder.
