You have an Azure DevOps project named Project1 and an Azure subscription named Sub1.

You need to prevent releases from being deployed unless the releases comply with the Azure Policy rules assigned to Sub1.

What should you do in the release pipeline of Project1?

  1. Add a deployment gate.
  2. Modify the Deployment queue settings.
  3. Configure a deployment trigger.
  4. Create a pipeline variable.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

You can check policy compliance with gates.
You can extend the approval process for the release by adding a gate. Gates allow you to configure automated calls to external services, where the results are used to approve or reject a deployment.
You can use gates to ensure that the release meets a wide range or criteria, without requiring user intervention.

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have a project in Azure DevOps named Project1 that contains two Azure DevOps pipelines named Pipeline1 and Pipeline2.

You need to ensure that Pipeline1 can deploy code successfully to an Azure web app named webapp1. The solution must ensure that Pipeline2 does not have permission to webapp1.

Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Select and Place:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Step 1: Create a service principal in Microsoft Entra ID
We need it in step 3.

Step 2: In Project1, create a service connection
You can create a connection from Azure Pipelines to external and remote services for executing tasks in a job. Once you establish a connection, you can view, edit, and add security to the service connection

Step 3: In Project, configure permissions.
To authorize a service connection for a specific pipeline, open the pipeline by selecting Edit and queue a build manually. You see a resource authorization error and an "Authorize resources" action on the error. Choose this action to explicitly add the pipeline as an authorized user of the service connection.

Azure Resource Manager service connection
Use the following parameters to define and secure a connection to a Microsoft Azure subscription using Service Principal Authentication (SPA) or an Azure managed Service Identity. The dialog offers two main modes:

* Automated subscription detection. In this mode, Azure Pipelines queries Azure for all of the subscriptions and instances to which you have access. They use the credentials you're currently signed in with in Azure Pipelines (including Microsoft accounts and School or Work accounts).
If you don't see the subscription you want to use, sign out of Azure Pipelines and sign in again using the appropriate account credentials.

*-> Manual subscription pipeline. In this mode, you must specify the service principal you want to use to connect to Azure. The service principal specifies the resources and the access levels that are available over the connection.
Use this approach when you need to connect to an Azure account using different credentials from the credentials you're currently signed in with in Azure Pipelines. It's useful way to maximize security and limit access. Service principals are valid for two years.
