Question

Can we revert the deployed code to ADF through DevOps pipeline. I want to revert the changes to previous version of ADF

srimedha anne 10

Hi, We are using automatic publish way and DevOps CICD for automating Azure Data Factory deployment using DevOps pipeline. We have already deployed version1 that have 10ADF pipelines deployed and we have deployed version2 that have 5 new pipelines we deployed version2 to ADF through DevOps pipeline itself.. Now we are not satisfied with the changes made by Release2 we want to revert back the deployment using DevOps practice itself... Can someone help me with the solution for this... We are using ARMTemplates deployment tasks...

Hello srimedha anne,

Welcome to the MS Q&A platform.

Yes, you can revert back the deployed code to ADF through DevOps Release pipeline.

To do this, you need to re-deployed the release pipeline, which has the version1(with 10 ADF pipelines)

Ex:

In the screenshot below, to revert the changes back to Release-11(previously deployed release-12), click on view release(using more options), and hover on the stages; then, we will see the re-deploy option.

Click on "re-deploy" to revert the changes back to the previous release.

Please note: When you re-deploy the previous release, the release pipeline won't delete the existing pipelines, but it overwrites the current pipelines.

As Release2 is successful we already have 5 pipelines deployed successfully to ADF right so how redeploying previous version is going to delete the deployed 5 pipelines automatically? Before redeploying do we need to delete the changes made in release2?

Hello srimedha anne,

Sorry, I forgot to mention this in my answer.
Yes, your understanding is correct. When you re-deploy the previous release, the release pipeline won't delete the existing pipelines, but it overwrites the current pipelines.(updated this line in the answer section)

For example:

On deployment 1, you deployed 10 ADF pipelines.

On deployment 2, you added 5 new ADF pipelines and made changes to two previous pipelines.

Next, you wanted to revert the changes to deployment 1. When you re-deploy the deployment-1,

all 10 previous ADF pipelines will be redeployed(changes made on the two previous pipelines will be reverted), and the new 5 pipelines will remain in the data factory. You will need to delete these 5 pipelines manually.

I hope this makes sense to you. Please let me know if you need further clarification on this.

Hi @Bhargava-MSFT ,

Thank you for your answer.

You will need to delete these 5 pipelines manually. -- To automate this process, i believe we can use the version1 Preandpostdeployment PowerShell script provided by microsoft that can delete the deployed components if they are not part of current release ARMTemplate files.

Please correct/modify my understanding if anything missing.

Hello srimedha anne,

Yes, you are correct. To automate the process, you can use this script in the Azure Powershell task.

I validated ad confirmed the PrePostDeploymentScript mentioned in the GitHub document can stop triggers prior to the deployment, and it will delete the removed resources and start the triggers after the deployment
