ARM template location valure change

Question

how do we change the parameter value location from east us to west us ( for ARM Template) in the azure pipelines without touching changing the code in the repo?

Answer 1

To change the location value of an ARM template deployment without modifying the code in the repo, you can pass the parameter value in your Azure DevOps pipeline. You can do this using the overrideParameters property of the AzureResourceManagerTemplateDeployment@3 task in your Azure pipeline YAML file. Example YAML:

trigger:
- main

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

steps:
- task: AzureResourceManagerTemplateDeployment@3
  inputs:
    azureResourceManagerConnection: 'YourAzureConnectionName'
    subscriptionId: 'your-subscription-id'
    resourceGroupName: 'your-resource-group-name'
    location: 'West US'
    csmFile: 'path/to/your/arm/template.json'
    csmParametersFile: 'path/to/your/arm/parameters.json'
    overrideParameters: '-location "West US"'
    deploymentMode: 'Incremental'
