YAML on Martijn's Notes

Azure DevOps — Part 2: Your First YAML Pipeline

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 19:01:00 +0200

In part 1 the azure-pipelines.yml was merged into the main branch via a Pull Request. In this second part we attach that YAML to a pipeline and run it on a Microsoft-hosted Windows agent in the cloud.

The Pipelines section

The Pipelines section in the sidebar contains more items than Repos:

Pipelines — the CI pipelines (build)
Environments — deployment targets such as acceptance and production
Releases — the classic visual release pipelines (older system, being replaced by multi-stage YAML)
Library — variable groups and secure files
Task groups — reusable task blocks that can be shared across multiple pipelines
Deployment groups — self-hosted agents grouped per environment

On a new project the Pipelines list is empty.

Azure DevOps — Part 1: Repos, Branches, Policies and Pull Requests

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 19:00:00 +0200

Azure DevOps is Microsoft’s platform for managing the complete software delivery chain: version control, CI/CD pipelines, project planning, package feeds and documentation. In this first part of the series we build the foundation: a Git repository, branch protection and the Pull Request workflow.

Setup: organisation and project

After logging in to dev.azure.com the mvdboom organisation is visible with one existing project.
