No good way to trigger Azure build pipeline

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

In normal software development we would trigger a build pipeline upon e.g. commits to source control. On top of that we would put a release pipeline to deploy. But when creating model-driven Power Apps, we need some sort of trigger that resembles the "commit to source control" event. The only thing that could sort of make sense within Power Apps development would be something along the lines of "Publish all customizations". Upon that event we would extract the solution from the DEV environment and push it to e.g. git . Since I cannot find any events to listen to, the only thing I can think of is to force our (citizen) developers to actively log onto and initiate the build pipeline. That is not an ideal solution ... for a number of reasons 😉 . We would like our developers to not think about this at all.

 

An obvious "hack" would be to create a Flow and have that trigger the build pipeline in Azure DevOps, but it is not - as far as I can see - possible to react to the "Publish all customizations"-event in Power Apps.

 

I am looking for either a solution to my problem or a way to circumvent the lack of an appropriate trigger to listen to. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

     I have made a test on my side and as you said, I find no any good way to achieve your requirement.

    has there been any movement in such request for triggering devops pipelines from publish events?

    I do not fully understand how above marked solution is really helping?!

     

    Thanks, SMaDeP
