Hello @Shravan Ghongade ,
Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

As we understand the ask here is how to copy assets from the post-publish branch to another branch . This branch contains ARM templates rather than the definitions found in other branches. Given that these are two different formats, it doesn't really make sense to pull from the adf_publish branch to another. It would be like taking apart a salad to make the vegetables. The information is mostly there, but in a form ready for Azure to eat (deploy).

So if what you really want is to get definitions from the last publish, what you really need to do, is go look at your repository to the last commit to the collaboration branch before publishing. Take that commit and either create a new branch from it, or cherry pick items. That becomes a git operation, not a Data Factory operation. If you made no changes to the collaboration branch since publishing, you can just use the current collaboration branch instead of earlier commits.

Please do let me if you have any queries.

Thanks
Martin
