How to make one particular pipeline be triggered for change corresponding to that pipeline applications?

Question

Our team is developing a project which contains some 7 API's and 3 Function apps. They all are placed in a single Azure repo with only one '.sln' file for all the API's and Function apps. I am asked to build different pipelines for all the API's and Function apps.

Our expected work of pipelines is, if there is a change in one of the API's or Function apps, then pipeline corresponding to that API/Fn app has to be triggered but not the remaining pipelines. But if there is a change in any of the API's/Fn apps then all of the pipelines are getting triggered.

So I have added the path filter in the build pipelines. But from then onwards auto triggering of pipeline for changes in API's/Fn apps is not working. What should be solution for this approach.

My pipeline

trigger:
branches:
include:

• My branch name
  paths:
  include:
• '**/x api/*' exclude:
  • '**/z api/*'

When I am using above approach auto trigger of pipeline for changes in the corresponding API is not working.
