- Hello Friends, Wish you all a Happy New Year. 🎉
In Azure DevOps, To deploy your app to an Azure resource, like an app service or a virtual machine, you need an Azure Resource Manager service connection. You can define Service Connections in Azure Pipelines or Team Foundation Server (TFS) that are available for use in all your tasks. There are multiple ways to define Service Connections and set up the authentication between Azure DevOps and your Azure Subscription
In this video, let's look at two of the common ways that you set this connection so that you can start using Azure resources from within your DevOps account

How can we connect devops to different tenant. If by using principal account. Do we need to give contributor role on subscription or can be achieved by giving contributor role on a resource group
Does it work for resources level contributors access instead of subscription level
Excellent stuff, thanks! I have two subcriptions, Azure for students and Visual Studio Professional. They are both under my schools directory where i have a "User" role and I am pretty sure that they can't give "Contributor" roles to students under this schools general directory. This doesn't allow me to create tenants so that i could practice Azure B2C or other Azure AD stuff. Is there any safe and legal work around, or should i just create my own free trial Azure account for that? It would help me a lot if you don't mind answearing.
Thank you Finn. Yes the best way would be to create a free account and use that so you have full control. Here is a good start for a lot of free things - visualstudio.microsoft.com/dev-essentials/
Hope that helps and let me know if you have any additional questions.
Hi Rahul, Good video. Could you please share how can we do the same stuff with a user-defined managed identity? When we select ARM we can also select managed identity option and how it is different than this approach and in what scenarios we can utilize managed identity in service connection. Thanks
Thank you Sanvid. Great suggestion - Not sure when I will get to it though.
Suggestion for the next video:
Azure function - EF Core (Code First) example.
Can't find any up to date resource on this!
Thank you Scott for the suggestion. Will take a note of it.
What particularly are you looking for Code First from Azure Function? Did you have a particular scenario that you are looking at?
@@RahulNath I think a video explaining how you go about adding entity framework core to an azure function and accessing the database by doing a get and a post would be beneficial, as a developer I think that would be something you'd be doing when it comes to working with functions.
@@scottatkinson6339 Sure will add it to my list!
if i don't want to give contributor role to Azure app registry and i want to use user assign manage identity in app registry Federated credentials can you please share that approach
I have azure cloud & devops on same email ID, I am getting the message "You don’t appear to have an active Azure subscription" when createing azure service connection.
Can u make video on directories in Build Agent. work directory , staging directory , a ,s folders etc
Good suggestion Sourabh. I will try and do one.
@@RahulNath Thanks Rahul. i will wait for it
Hi Rahul..can you please make a video on common deployment failure cases in AzureDevops
Good suggestion. I will try and collate some. Did you have any suggestsions on the failures you wanted covered?
@@RahulNath actually we deployed the application into Azurevms by using deployment groups.
1. In case if IIS was not responding
2.in case if the production server goes down
3.production servers are not responding
4. Any service connection failures
Sir,kindly create a video on Azure devops to push aks deployment
Thank you Yerra for the suggestion. Added it to my list, but not sure how soon (I haven't done much of aks). And you can call me Rahul 😀
I got one issue, I cant able to select manage service principal 5:58
First
😀
İs it possible to make subscription and resource group / and resource name fields parametric? Since they are drop down fields should we only choose the available options? Can we use variable syntax in those fields to make things manageable easier?
Good point Mustafa. I haven't tried that. Did you have any luck getting it to work?
@@RahulNath in classic pipeline it's not possible unfortunately. It's only doable with yaml pipelines.
Hi Rahul,
I am trying to create Azure CD Release for Azure Resource Manager with Visual Studio Professional Subscription.
My Visual Studio Professional Subscription is in my Organization's Azure Active Directory.
I am getting below error
"Failed to create an app in Azure Active Directory. Error: Insufficient privileges to complete the operation in Microsoft Graph Ensure that the user has permissions to create an Azure Active Directory Application."
My Understanding -> It is trying to register/create a new application object in Azure Active Directory but I don't have permission.
How could I overcome this? I am trying to deploy Azure Resources via ARM Templates for my learning purpose.
Can you confirm any cons for using service principals instead of managed identity, as managed identity need more deployment agent then service principals, it makes managed identity more costly, but i'm not sure enough for this. we need recommendation for this, Managed Identity vs service principals. please help
Managed Identity is a special type of service principal. What cost are we talking about here? Pricing is for the resource that is getting used, unless I am missing something here. Can you provide more details?
@@RahulNath Thanks for acknowledging ... Its about..Service connection and pipelines ....when we try to deploy anything from Azure DevOps to Azure subscription we need to use service connections but and we need to create App id in azure subscription for that, which will utilize local service principals or managed identity (as per our choice) to assign various roles related to permissions. and when we use Managed identity option it will require each deployment agent for each service connection or we can group them also for similar type of resource group but in that way we will loose the grip from least privilege's as the same service connection can be used now to deploy in any of those grouped RGs, and also when we use more deployment agent it will be very costly too...and the flip side when we choose SPNs, we can use only one deployment agent but in this way we need to use multiple service connections for each RG. thus overall increasing management overhead and also we can not use automatic key rotation mechanism....
and the only thing i need is the best option amongs these two...and i also want to know ..if anything i'm considering wrong above.
On what cases we choose manual and automatic ?
If your account has the necessary permissions to set up the connection in your Azure account you can use Automatic.
Can we not just add the users simply through Azure DevOps from Organizational Settings??
I guess you could do if that's an option.
Hi, Can we create Organization level subscription? not project level
I guess not when I last looked (which was a while back), not sure if things have changed.
Hi, thank you so much.. I did service connection manually, when i create the release, It shows "##[error]Error: No package found with specified pattern: D:\a
1\a\**\*.warCheck if the package mentioned in the task is published as an artifact in the build or a previous stage and downloaded in the current job." Could you please help me with this..
Make sure the build pipeline is publishing an artefact with that extension (.war) and is in the correct path. Also hope you have assigned the correct build artefact as the trigger for the release pipeline.
Is there a way that we can use open Id connect in azure devops ?
haven't tried that - what are you trying to achieve?
@@RahulNath I don't want the service connection to be long living secrets I want temporary credentials for every pipeline runs and after every pipeline run it will be rotated. It's possible in GIthub Actions , just checking with you if there's any possibility that we could implement the same in azure devops ?
I am unable to see all the app services . Is there any permission issue, I could see only the services I created?
Possibly permission issue? Hard to tell without seeing though
Thanks for the reply, I am an owner at the app service level. Is there any other permissions should I set up to get this populated?
@@charan20teja Not sure what would be happening here. Hard to tell without seeing it.
