Best Practices

Authentication and Security

# Use PAT from environment variable (most secure)
export AZURE_DEVOPS_EXT_PAT=$MY_PAT
az devops login --organization $ORG_URL

# Pipe PAT securely (avoids shell history)
echo $MY_PAT | az devops login --organization $ORG_URL

# Set defaults to avoid repetition
az devops configure --defaults organization=$ORG_URL project=$PROJECT

# Clear credentials after use
az devops logout --organization $ORG_URL

Idempotent Operations

# Always use --detect for auto-detection
az devops configure --defaults organization=$ORG_URL project=$PROJECT

# Check existence before creation
if ! az pipelines show --id $PIPELINE_ID 2>/dev/null; then
  az pipelines create --name "$PIPELINE_NAME" --yaml-path azure-pipelines.yml
fi

# Use --output tsv for shell parsing
PIPELINE_ID=$(az pipelines list --query "[?name=='MyPipeline'].id" --output tsv)

# Use --output json for programmatic access
BUILD_STATUS=$(az pipelines build show --id $BUILD_ID --query "status" --output json)

Script-Safe Output

# Suppress warnings and errors
az pipelines list --only-show-errors

# No output (useful for commands that only need to execute)
az pipelines run --name "$PIPELINE_NAME" --output none

# TSV format for shell scripts (clean, no formatting)
az repos pr list --output tsv --query "[].{ID:pullRequestId,Title:title}"

# JSON with specific fields
az pipelines list --output json --query "[].{Name:name, ID:id, URL:url}"

Pipeline Orchestration

# Run pipeline and wait for completion
RUN_ID=$(az pipelines run --name "$PIPELINE_NAME" --query "id" -o tsv)

while true; do
  STATUS=$(az pipelines runs show --run-id $RUN_ID --query "status" -o tsv)
  if [[ "$STATUS" != "inProgress" && "$STATUS" != "notStarted" ]]; then
    break
  fi
  sleep 10
done

# Check result
RESULT=$(az pipelines runs show --run-id $RUN_ID --query "result" -o tsv)
if [[ "$RESULT" == "succeeded" ]]; then
  echo "Pipeline succeeded"
else
  echo "Pipeline failed with result: $RESULT"
  exit 1
fi

Variable Group Management

# Create variable group idempotently
VG_NAME="production-variables"
VG_ID=$(az pipelines variable-group list --query "[?name=='$VG_NAME'].id" -o tsv)

if [[ -z "$VG_ID" ]]; then
  VG_ID=$(az pipelines variable-group create \
    --name "$VG_NAME" \
    --variables API_URL=$API_URL API_KEY=$API_KEY \
    --authorize true \
    --query "id" -o tsv)
  echo "Created variable group with ID: $VG_ID"
else
  echo "Variable group already exists with ID: $VG_ID"
fi

Service Connection Automation

# Create service connection using configuration file
cat > service-connection.json <<'EOF'
{
  "data": {
    "subscriptionId": "$SUBSCRIPTION_ID",
    "subscriptionName": "My Subscription",
    "creationMode": "Manual",
    "serviceEndpointId": "$SERVICE_ENDPOINT_ID"
  },
  "url": "https://management.azure.com/",
  "authorization": {
    "parameters": {
      "tenantid": "$TENANT_ID",
      "serviceprincipalid": "$SP_ID",
      "authenticationType": "spnKey",
      "serviceprincipalkey": "$SP_KEY"
    },
    "scheme": "ServicePrincipal"
  },
  "type": "azurerm",
  "isShared": false,
  "isReady": true
}
EOF

az devops service-endpoint create \
  --service-endpoint-configuration service-connection.json \
  --project "$PROJECT"

Pull Request Automation

# Create PR with work items and reviewers
PR_ID=$(az repos pr create \
  --repository "$REPO_NAME" \
  --source-branch "$FEATURE_BRANCH" \
  --target-branch main \
  --title "Feature: $(git log -1 --pretty=%B)" \
  --description "$(git log -1 --pretty=%B)" \
  --work-items $WORK_ITEM_1 $WORK_ITEM_2 \
  --reviewers "$REVIEWER_1" "$REVIEWER_2" \
  --required-reviewers "$LEAD_EMAIL" \
  --labels "enhancement" "backlog" \
  --open \
  --query "pullRequestId" -o tsv)

# Set auto-complete when policies pass
az repos pr update --id $PR_ID --auto-complete true

Error Handling and Retry Patterns

Retry Logic for Transient Failures

# Retry function for network operations
retry_command() {
  local max_attempts=3
  local attempt=1
  local delay=5

  while [[ $attempt -le $max_attempts ]]; do
    if "$@"; then
      return 0
    fi
    echo "Attempt $attempt failed. Retrying in ${delay}s..."
    sleep $delay
    ((attempt++))
    delay=$((delay * 2))
  done

  echo "All $max_attempts attempts failed"
  return 1
}

# Usage
retry_command az pipelines run --name "$PIPELINE_NAME"

Check and Handle Errors

# Check if pipeline exists before operations
PIPELINE_ID=$(az pipelines list --query "[?name=='$PIPELINE_NAME'].id" -o tsv)

if [[ -z "$PIPELINE_ID" ]]; then
  echo "Pipeline not found. Creating..."
  az pipelines create --name "$PIPELINE_NAME" --yaml-path azure-pipelines.yml
else
  echo "Pipeline exists with ID: $PIPELINE_ID"
fi

Validate Inputs

# Validate required parameters
if [[ -z "$PROJECT" || -z "$REPO" ]]; then
  echo "Error: PROJECT and REPO must be set"
  exit 1
fi

# Check if branch exists
if ! az repos ref list --repository "$REPO" --query "[?name=='refs/heads/$BRANCH']" -o tsv | grep -q .; then
  echo "Error: Branch $BRANCH does not exist"
  exit 1
fi

Handle Permission Errors

# Try operation, handle permission errors
if az devops security permission update \
  --id "$USER_ID" \
  --namespace "GitRepositories" \
  --project "$PROJECT" \
  --token "repoV2/$PROJECT/$REPO_ID" \
  --allow-bit 2 \
  --deny-bit 0 2>&1 | grep -q "unauthorized"; then
  echo "Error: Insufficient permissions to update repository permissions"
  exit 1
fi

Pipeline Failure Notification

# Run pipeline and check result
RUN_ID=$(az pipelines run --name "$PIPELINE_NAME" --query "id" -o tsv)

# Wait for completion
while true; do
  STATUS=$(az pipelines runs show --run-id $RUN_ID --query "status" -o tsv)
  if [[ "$STATUS" != "inProgress" && "$STATUS" != "notStarted" ]]; then
    break
  fi
  sleep 10
done

# Check result and create work item on failure
RESULT=$(az pipelines runs show --run-id $RUN_ID --query "result" -o tsv)
if [[ "$RESULT" != "succeeded" ]]; then
  BUILD_NUMBER=$(az pipelines runs show --run-id $RUN_ID --query "buildNumber" -o tsv)

  az boards work-item create \
    --title "Build $BUILD_NUMBER failed" \
    --type Bug \
    --description "Pipeline run $RUN_ID failed with result: $RESULT\n\nURL: $ORG_URL/$PROJECT/_build/results?buildId=$RUN_ID"
fi

Graceful Degradation

# Try to download artifact, fallback to alternative source
if ! az pipelines runs artifact download \
  --artifact-name 'webapp' \
  --path ./output \
  --run-id $RUN_ID 2>/dev/null; then
  echo "Warning: Failed to download from pipeline run. Falling back to backup source..."

  # Alternative download method
  curl -L "$BACKUP_URL" -o ./output/backup.zip
fi

Advanced JMESPath Queries

Filtering and Sorting

# Filter by multiple conditions
az pipelines list --query "[?name.contains('CI') && enabled==true]"

# Filter by status and result
az pipelines runs list --query "[?status=='completed' && result=='succeeded']"

# Sort by date (descending)
az pipelines runs list --query "sort_by([?status=='completed'], &finishTime | reverse(@))"

# Get top N items after filtering
az pipelines runs list --query "[?result=='succeeded'] | [0:5]"

Nested Queries

# Extract nested properties
az pipelines show --id $PIPELINE_ID --query "{Name:name, Repo:repository.{Name:name, Type:type}, Folder:folder}"

# Query build details
az pipelines build show --id $BUILD_ID --query "{ID:id, Number:buildNumber, Status:status, Result:result, Requested:requestedFor.displayName}"

Complex Filtering

# Find pipelines with specific YAML path
az pipelines list --query "[?process.type.name=='yaml' && process.yamlFilename=='azure-pipelines.yml']"

# Find PRs from specific reviewer
az repos pr list --query "[?contains(reviewers[?displayName=='John Doe'].displayName, 'John Doe')]"

# Find work items with specific iteration and state
az boards work-item show --id $WI_ID --query "{Title:fields['System.Title'], State:fields['System.State'], Iteration:fields['System.IterationPath']}"

Aggregation

# Count items by status
az pipelines runs list --query "groupBy([?status=='completed'], &[result]) | {Succeeded: [?key=='succeeded'][0].count, Failed: [?key=='failed'][0].count}"

# Get unique reviewers
az repos pr list --query "unique_by(reviewers[], &displayName)"

# Sum values
az pipelines runs list --query "[?result=='succeeded'] | [].{Duration:duration} | [0].Duration"

Conditional Transformation

# Format dates
az pipelines runs list --query "[].{ID:id, Date:createdDate, Formatted:createdDate | format_datetime(@, 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm')}"

# Conditional output
az pipelines list --query "[].{Name:name, Status:(enabled ? 'Enabled' : 'Disabled')}"

# Extract with defaults
az pipelines show --id $PIPELINE_ID --query "{Name:name, Folder:folder || 'Root', Description:description || 'No description'}"

Complex Workflows

# Find longest running builds
az pipelines build list --query "sort_by([?result=='succeeded'], &queueTime) | reverse(@) | [0:3].{ID:id, Number:buildNumber, Duration:duration}"

# Get PR statistics per reviewer
az repos pr list --query "groupBy([], &reviewers[].displayName) | [].{Reviewer:@.key, Count:length(@)}"

# Find work items with multiple child items
az boards work-item relation list --id $PARENT_ID --query "[?rel=='System.LinkTypes.Hierarchy-Forward'] | [].{ChildID:url | split('/', @) | [-1]}"

Scripting Patterns for Idempotent Operations

Create or Update Pattern

# Ensure pipeline exists, update if different
ensure_pipeline() {
  local name=$1
  local yaml_path=$2

  PIPELINE=$(az pipelines list --query "[?name=='$name']" -o json)

  if [[ -z "$PIPELINE" ]]; then
    echo "Creating pipeline: $name"
    az pipelines create --name "$name" --yaml-path "$yaml_path"
  else
    echo "Pipeline exists: $name"
  fi
}

Ensure Variable Group

# Create variable group with idempotent updates
ensure_variable_group() {
  local vg_name=$1
  shift
  local variables=("$@")

  VG_ID=$(az pipelines variable-group list --query "[?name=='$vg_name'].id" -o tsv)

  if [[ -z "$VG_ID" ]]; then
    echo "Creating variable group: $vg_name"
    VG_ID=$(az pipelines variable-group create \
      --name "$vg_name" \
      --variables "${variables[@]}" \
      --authorize true \
      --query "id" -o tsv)
  else
    echo "Variable group exists: $vg_name (ID: $VG_ID)"
  fi

  echo "$VG_ID"
}

Ensure Service Connection

# Check if service connection exists, create if not
ensure_service_connection() {
  local name=$1
  local project=$2

  SC_ID=$(az devops service-endpoint list \
    --project "$project" \
    --query "[?name=='$name'].id" \
    -o tsv)

  if [[ -z "$SC_ID" ]]; then
    echo "Service connection not found. Creating..."
    # Create logic here
  else
    echo "Service connection exists: $name"
    echo "$SC_ID"
  fi
}

Idempotent Work Item Creation

# Create work item only if doesn't exist with same title
create_work_item_if_new() {
  local title=$1
  local type=$2

  WI_ID=$(az boards query \
    --wiql "SELECT ID FROM WorkItems WHERE [System.WorkItemType]='$type' AND [System.Title]='$title'" \
    --query "[0].id" -o tsv)

  if [[ -z "$WI_ID" ]]; then
    echo "Creating work item: $title"
    WI_ID=$(az boards work-item create --title "$title" --type "$type" --query "id" -o tsv)
  else
    echo "Work item exists: $title (ID: $WI_ID)"
  fi

  echo "$WI_ID"
}

Bulk Idempotent Operations

# Ensure multiple pipelines exist
declare -a PIPELINES=(
  "ci-pipeline:azure-pipelines.yml"
  "deploy-pipeline:deploy.yml"
  "test-pipeline:test.yml"
)

for pipeline in "${PIPELINES[@]}"; do
  IFS=':' read -r name yaml <<< "$pipeline"
  ensure_pipeline "$name" "$yaml"
done

Configuration Synchronization

# Sync variable groups from config file
sync_variable_groups() {
  local config_file=$1

  while IFS=',' read -r vg_name variables; do
    ensure_variable_group "$vg_name" "$variables"
  done < "$config_file"
}

# config.csv format:
# prod-vars,API_URL=prod.com,API_KEY=secret123
# dev-vars,API_URL=dev.com,API_KEY=secret456
