Hi @CoderDave, thank you for the excellent content. Please keep it up. Is there a way in ADO to link the results of a test plan to a pre-deployment gate? In other words, can a build be held back until a test plan is above a minimum threshold? Thereby linking Test Plans to Releases?
Does anybody know how to get the content of a variable to a rest api in the URL suffix and parameters field where the pipeline is in yml? It works OK in a release pipeline but not in a yal pipeline - thankyou
can one azure DevOps Kubernetes environment have access to multiple namespaces? In your example, you specified a namespace when creating the environment? And how to deal with the tools which creat their own Kubernetes namespaces? e.g., using ci/cd to install linkerd to Kubernetes, linkerd script will create a new namespace in the Kubernetes, will azure DevOps allow the script to create new namespace?
No, one AzDO environment is mapped only to 1 namespace. The “environment “ term is broad, but this is more scoped to a deployment if you will. AFAIK you can’t create K8S environments dynamically... so if your CD creates a new namespace then you’d need to add it manually to AzDO. But in my experience this almost never happens.. you usually create a new namespace for a new application, system, department, ecc... and then you keep deploying there
Yes that’s correct, but you wouldn’t deploy that every time... like for Linkerd, you would deploy it when setting up the cluster and that’s it... after that you may update it, but it will keep the same namespace 😀
I would say GitHub, unless you have specific requirements. Keep in mind that GitHub is Microsoft strategic direction and majority of the investments are going and will go in that direction. Hence the recommendation to go with GH for new projects ☺️
@@CoderDave checked out some of your other videos, really like the "Environment" in Azure DevOps, not sure if GitHub has the full capability. And also the github "Environment" feature is only available to Enterprise accounts?
Hi Linda, I don't do private tutoring in the classic way because of lack of time between my job and the YT channel :) However, you can book a 30-minute or 60-minute slot with me if you like. Take a look at geni.us/cdconsult to see the available spots... let me know if you can't find a spot that works for you
✨ *Question of the day* ✨Which Check do you use or like the most?
Approvals
Yep, I think it is probably the most used universally 😁
@@CoderDave Yes, Agree and Thank you for your videos, they help me a lot!
Very happy to know it 😊
@@CoderDave Where can i see the sample project for Evaluate Artifact policy?

Sorry for the late reply, uhm... not that I know of
Thank you very much, a very good explanation!
Thanks!
You can please create a detailed video on Invoke Rest API in release gates.
I will work on that.
@@CoderDave Thanks !! waiting for that !!
In your example are you using an YAML pipeline or a classic release one? Is there a way to share the YAML code for the pipelines in your examples?
Do I need to pay for using Azure DevOps Environment VM separately?

some of the tools create it's own namespace when after installed to cluster. e.g. Linkerd. I might be wrong on this one. or it might have changed.
Yes that’s correct, but you wouldn’t deploy that every time... like for Linkerd, you would deploy it when setting up the cluster and that’s it... after that you may update it, but it will keep the same namespace 😀
Question is there a way to make appear so log in the console when the approval and check runs ?
Do you mean having a log-in screen pop up?
Could you share the yaml file for required template
should I use github or devops for deploying to Azure if I am starting a new project?
I would say GitHub, unless you have specific requirements. Keep in mind that GitHub is Microsoft strategic direction and majority of the investments are going and will go in that direction. Hence the recommendation to go with GH for new projects ☺️

@@CoderDave and also I have been using Azure DevOps boards for a few projects, not sure the github has the same capability
You are right. GH Environments are available only on public repos or in GHE. And they are not as feature complete as AzDO environments
GitHub and Azure Boards integrate seamlessly, take a look at this video: ua-cam.com/video/CNKYUEhEuUg/v-deo.html

Can you help me to find best resources to learn powershell @CoderDave ?
I would recommend starting with this video series: ua-cam.com/video/IHrGresKu2w/v-deo.html
@@CoderDave Thanks for the suggestion 🙏🙏
No problem :)
