如何使用 Azure DevOps REST API 设置发布定义工件

Question

I'm trying to set a long list of artifacts for one of the Release Definitions. As a start, I'm only adding one artifact. However, even that does not get updated. Below is what I have done so far. What am I doing wrong?

$patUser = 'patUser'
$patToken = 'patToken'
$base64AuthInfo = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f $($patUser), $($patToken))))
$header = @{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)}

$relDefsUrl = 'https://vsrm.dev.azure.com/myOrg/myProj/_apis/release/definitions?api-version=5.1'

try {
    $result = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $relDefsUrl -Method Get -ContentType "application/json" -Headers $header
    $relDefs = $result.value

    if ($relDefs.count -gt 0) {
        $relDefs | ForEach-Object {
            if ($_.name -eq 'ThisReleaseDefinition') {
                $url = $_.url + '?api-version=5.1'
                $relDefExpanded = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get -Headers @{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)}

                $sourceId = "1234:1234"
                $type = "Build"
                $alias = "_thisCIBuild"
                $defRef = ""
                $isRetained = $false

                $artifacts = @{
                    sourceId = $sourceId
                    type = $type
                    alias = $alias
                    definitionReference = $defRef
                    isRetained = $isRetained
                }

                $relDefExpanded.artifacts = $artifacts
                $body = $relDefExpanded | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 100
                $body = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($body)

                $updateResult = Invoke-RestMethod $url -Method Put -ContentType "application/json" -body $body -Headers $header
                Write-Host "The value of 'artifacts' is updated to" $updateResult.artifacts
            }
        }
    }
    else {
        throw ("Cannot continue because there is zero release definition.")
    }
}
catch {
    throw ("Failed to call ADO REST API: " + $_.Exception.Message)
}

Answer 1

Did you replace the revision parameter in the script? To update release definition, you need to set the currently revision to replace the old one, otherwise you will get the following prompt: You are using an old copy of the release pipeline. Refresh your copy and try again. You are using an old copy of the release pipeline. Refresh your copy and try again. This will cause the update to fail.

In your script, you use the get method to get the response body of the release definition, but the revision is not updated, only the artifacts part is modified.

I tested in Postman, it can work well:

Sample request body:
