Deploy to another workspace in synapse with CI/CD - azure-devops

Question

Currently I am able to deploy to Synapse via the Azure DevOps portal pipeline that I made with the UI. I am trying to achieve the same result via a yml file but I am encountering the problem [error]Encountered with exception:Error: No file found with this pattern and I have the following code:
trigger:
branches:
include:
- workspace_publish
pool:
name: Azure Pipelines
stages:
- stage: Build
displayName: Build stage
jobs:
- job: Deploying
steps:
- task: CopyFiles#2
displayName: 'Copy ARM Template Files to: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
inputs:
SourceFolder: testsaws
Contents: '*json'
archiveFile: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
TargetFolder: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
- task: PublishPipelineArtifact#1
displayName: 'Publish Pipeline Artifact'
inputs:
#PathtoPublish: ./testsaws
targetPath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
artifact: 'ASA_Drop'
- task: AzureSynapseWorkspace.synapsecicd-deploy.synapse-deploy.Synapse workspace deployment#1
displayName: 'Synapse deployment task for workspace: qasaws'
inputs:
azureSubscription: 'dataplatform-qa-group-SPN'
subscriptionId: 'XXX'
action: 'Create Or Update Resource Group'
resourceGroupName: 'dataplatform-qa-group'
location: 'West US 2'
TemplateFile: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/ASA_Drop/ARM/TemplateForWorkspace.json'
ParametersFile: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/ASA_Drop/ARM/TemplateParametersForWorkspaceQA.json'
Any help or suggestion in finding the problem is welcome and appreciated.

Answer 1

When in doubt, print out the contents. I used the following command to print out the content of the current working directory and found out the artifact didn't contain any file.
# PowerShell
# Run a PowerShell script on Linux, macOS, or Windows
- task: PowerShell#2
inputs:
#targetType: 'filePath' # Optional. Options: filePath, inline
#filePath: # Required when targetType == FilePath
#arguments: # Optional
#script: '# Write your PowerShell commands here.Write-Host Hello World'
# Required when targetType == Inline
#errorActionPreference: 'stop' # Optional. Options: default, stop, continue, silentlyContinue
#warningPreference: 'default' # Optional. Options: default, stop, continue, silentlyContinue
#informationPreference: 'default' # Optional. Options: default, stop, continue, silentlyContinue
#verbosePreference: 'default' # Optional. Options: default, stop, continue, silentlyContinue
#debugPreference: 'default' # Optional. Options: default, stop, continue, silentlyContinue
#failOnStderr: false # Optional
#ignoreLASTEXITCODE: false # Optional
#pwsh: false # Optional
#workingDirectory: # Optional
Then I changed the following in the yaml file:
- task: PublishPipelineArtifact#1
displayName: 'Publish Pipeline Artifact'
inputs:
#PathtoPublish: ./testsaws
targetPath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
artifact: 'ASA_Drop'
- task: AzureSynapseWorkspace.synapsecicd-deploy.synapse-deploy.Synapse workspace deployment#1
displayName: 'Synapse deployment task for workspace: qasaws'
inputs:
azureSubscription: 'qa-group-SPN'
subscriptionId: 'XXX'
action: 'Create Or Update Resource Group'
resourceGroupName: 'qa-group'
location: 'West US 2'
TemplateFile: 'testsaws/TemplateForWorkspace.json'
ParametersFile: 'testsaws/TemplateParametersForWorkspaceQA.json'
