I am very confused with how to pass arguments to inline script (Powershell task or Azure Cli task) in yaml pipeline.
Can somebody explain in simple language with a simple example? I have seen so many articles about passing arguments to Powershell script (.ps1) but not to an inline script. My inline script below is disassociate and Associate a new NSG to an existing subnet:
- task: AzureCLI#2
inputs:
azureSubscription: 'JMeterAzureConnection'
scriptType: 'ps'
scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
inlineScript: |
$oldnsgid=az network nsg show -n armmc-nsg -g arm-armmcdemo-rg --query 'subnets[].id' -o tsv
az network vnet subnet update --ids $oldnsgid --network-security-group "armmc-nsgv1"
When I run this, I get the below error during the pipeline run:
ERROR: argument --ids: expected at least one argument
Can you please help me what I need to do with this above issue?

I am using a variable group to store some secrets, that I want to deploy into a key vault as part of my pipeline.
I do this by passing the values as secret parameters to a bicep file via the Azure CLI.
My pipeline step looks like this:
- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: deploy bicep template
inputs:
azureSubscription: ${{ parameters.azure_subscription }}
scriptType: 'ps'
scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
inlineScript: |
az deployment group create `
--name foo.$(Build.BuildNumber) `
--resource-group my-rg-name `
--template-file $(Pipeline.Workspace)/iac/main.bicep `
--parameters environment='${{ parameters.environment }}' `
kv_secret_one='$(bd_kv_secret_one)' `
kv_secret_two='$(bd_kv_secret_two)'
Now, the issue is that these secrets could contain all sorts of special characters that break my script. So I found some suggestions that I could use double quotes inside the single quotes like this kv_secret_two='"$(bd_kv_secret_two)"'
However, if the value of the secret contains a " then the script breaks.
This leads me to think there must be a better way of doing this, but I cannot find it.
What is the correct way to pass --parameters so that they are escaped properly, no matter what characters the may contain?
You can do this with a bicep parameter file.
First, construct a parameter file including all your parameter values, escaped as necessary. You could do this in a script task for example.
Secondly, name that file when doing the deployment instead of listing individual parameters:
- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: deploy bicep template
inputs:
azureSubscription: ${{ parameters.azure_subscription }}
scriptType: 'ps'
scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
inlineScript: |
az deployment group create `
--name foo.$(Build.BuildNumber) `
--resource-group my-rg-name `
--template-file $(Pipeline.Workspace)/iac/main.bicep `
--parameters #main.parameters.json
You could check this document for double quotation in parameter, and edit your value to escape with the equivalent of the string "{\"key\": \"value\"}"
We are facing some issues with all the pipeline a specific Azure DevOps project. When we are running it getting below error.
All these projects are calling KeyVault from the code to get the secret during build (we are using Build Cake extension) , it is failing now in pipeline. All these pipelines were working previously, even the pipelines working previously (not modified) also not working under same project.
{"error":{"code":"Unauthorized","message":"AKV10032: Invalid issuer. Expected one of https://sts.windows.net/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/, https://sts.windows.net/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/, https://sts.windows.net/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/, found https://sts.windows.net/72f988bf-86f1-41af-91ab-2d7cd011db47/."}}
`- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: 'Cake Build with Azure CLI and Dotnet'
inputs:
scriptType: bash
scriptLocation: inlineScript
azureSubscription: 'Found-TEST'
addSpnToEnvironment: true
inlineScript: |
az account set -s "XXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXX-"
az account list
dotnet run --project ${{parameters.project}}`
Steps/fixes we have followed
Updated PAT Checked Service connection – it is correct
Tried to access KeyVault from pipeline. Working.
Tested the code locally to get the secret – Working
We have set the subscription properly before calling dotnet project
There are few related open issues on github:
[BUG] Since 2 days our pipeline can not get secrets from the keyvault because not the defined TenantId is used #5908
[BUG] Since 2 days our pipeline can not get secrets from the keyvault because not the defined TenantId is used #29902
As a workaround for the moment, you could set the AAD Tenant Id as environment variable (powershell sample):
- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: 'Cake Build with Azure CLI and Dotnet'
inputs:
scriptType: pscore
scriptLocation: inlineScript
azureSubscription: 'Found-TEST'
addSpnToEnvironment: true
inlineScript: |
az account set -s "XXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXX-"
az account list
$env:AZURE_TENANT_ID = "$($env:tenantId)";
dotnet run --project ${{parameters.project}}
From a devops build pipeline, I'd like to run a bicep file for a deployment into a resource group.
My devops service connection is names '365response-tfssc-dev', as seen below:
My yaml job is as follows:
- job: deployAzure
displayName: deploy bicep to Azure
pool:
vmImage: "ubuntu-latest"
dependsOn: [waitForValidation]
steps:
- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: Deploy Bicep To Azure
inputs:
azureSubscription: "365response-tfssc-dev"
scriptType: "bash"
scriptLocation: "inlineScript"
inlineScript: |
az deployment group create --resource-group rg-365Response-$(env)-001 \
--template-file '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)\bicep\365Response.main.bicep' \
--parameters '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)\bicep\365Response.parameters.$(env).json' \
If I run this from the terminal window of vs code then it works ok.
When this job runs it gives the following message:
/usr/bin/az account set --subscription 'correct subscription id is
listed here' /usr/bin/bash

Anyone see where I've gone wrong?
Please check if your service connection's Azure AD service principal has access to the Azure subscription you are trying to deploy to. Your error message doesn't really look like that, but the error message is not fully shown in your question. (That "very long" error message can be very important. ;) )
Most likely you should debug the az deployment group create ... script locally with the variable values replaced for yourself manually, and see if you can reproduce the error. That would mean that Azure Pipelines has nothing to do with this, you should just make your deployment instruction work and all will be good.
If #1 is not applicable for you (e.g. your deployment instruction is working totally fine locally but it is still failing in the pipeline), my recommendation is to look into Azure CLI version on the pipelines agent vs. the one you need and maybe add az Azure CLI upgrade/downgrade task to suit your needs.
For example, we have used these 2 steps to update AzureCLI when the MS hosted agent version contained a bug.
- script: sudo apt-get update
- task: AzureCLI#2
inputs:
azureSubscription: ${{ parameters.armServiceConnection }}
scriptType: 'bash'
scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
inlineScript: |-
az --version
curl -sL https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCLIDeb | sudo bash
az --version
Problem was using ubuntu image - should have been windows-2022
CICD: Azure devOps
Task: Azure CLI

I am facing a strange issue when I pass the env variable from Azure Pipeline.
Command (Inline Script):-
$env:ENV="FOO"
Output:-
2021-09-03T13:49:28.9213455Z
2021-09-03T13:49:28.9214265Z c:\Agent\_work\r1\a>$env:ENV="FOO"
**2021-09-03T13:49:28.9219788Z The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.**
2021-09-03T13:49:28.9298991Z ##[error]Script failed with error: Error: The process 'c:\Agent\_work\_temp\azureclitaskscript1630676963575.bat' failed with exit code 1
The same command works perfectly fine in local VM PowerShell but not sure why it doesn't from Pipeline. Any suggestions?
Note: Directory path is correct ONLY.
The script seems to be in .bat and $env:ENV=... is not a supported bat command.
$env:ENV="FOO"
This script is PowerShell Script.
You need to specify the use of PowerShell in the Azure CLI task to run the script.
In Azure CLI task V1 , it seems that there is no option to achieve this.
I suggest that you can use the Azure CLI task version 2:
- task: AzureCLI#2
displayName: 'Azure CLI '
inputs:
azureSubscription: xxx
scriptType: ps
scriptLocation: inlineScript
inlineScript: '$env:ENV="FOO"'
I am trying to run an Azure CLI task in pipeline and getting the following error :

The pre-requisites mentioned in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/deploy/azure-cli?view=azure-devops is fulfilled.
**Pre-requisites mentioned in the ms site :**
Microsoft hosted agents have Azure CLI pre-installed. However if you are using private agents, install Azure CLI on the computer(s) that run the build and release agent. If an agent is already running on the machine on which the Azure CLI is installed, restart the agent to ensure all the relevant stage variables are updated.
I am not using any private agents. I am using a free subscription.
The task in pipeline yaml is as :
- task: AzureCLI#2
inputs:
azureSubscription: 'Free Trial(<My Subscription id>)'
scriptType: 'ps'
scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
inlineScript: |
az --version

Why is the agent not able to find powershell in its system!!
Is this a bug?
Thanks!
I think you might be using a Linux agent such as 'ubuntu-latest'. Try changing it back to AzureCLI#2 and set scriptType: pscore. scriptType: ps doesn't work on Linux.

Hi try without "scriptType" and change the CLI version to 1, Please see the below script,
