Hi @Anonymous ,
Thankyou for using Microsoft Q&A platform and posting your query.

By the error message, It seems the main root is not set correctly. You have set '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/_ADF_PoC/ArmTemplates/ARMTemplateForFactory.json' as the path for override template parameter. Could you please confirm:

1. _ADF_PoC : is the artifact name you have set while creating the release pipeline
2. ArmTemplates : is the name of your dev adf
3. ARMTemplateForFactory : is the name of json file pointing to Template parameter

If you go to adf_publish branch of your GIT repo , you will be able to see two json files like these:

For templateparameter , you have to go with the second option (not the first one)

Hope this will help. Please let us know if any further queries.

Hi @AnnuKumari-MSFT ,

Yes, I have selected Build Artifact as the source Type. Because I have configured Build pipeline to generate artifacts instead of adf_publish

[ Old method --> We will publish the pipeline from collaboration branch, it will get validate and stored as adf artifacts in adf_publish branch and from that branch we can deploy it.]

But if we use build pipeline, we no need to publish, instead if I give pull request from my working branch to collaboration branch, automatically this build pipeline validates and generates artifacts in build folder. From there we can deploy. So only I chose the Build artifact. I cant chose Azure Repos since I didn't validate and publish anything

I got an answer from a blog

Since build is accessible only during Run Time, I think I am facing error. Correct me If I am wrong.
