Exploring the Full YAML Pipeline View in Azure DevOps

Azure DevOps YAML pipelines can be created using reusable YAML templates that help define parts of the pipeline as modules. By using templates, we can create shorter YAML pipelines and avoid duplication. However, debugging a YAML pipeline with templates is not easy, as we are unable to view the full, expanded pipeline easily. Azure DevOps now supports a new feature that allows us to see the full YAML pipeline of a pipeline run. In this blog post we are going to learn how to navigate to the full YAML pipeline view of the YAML pipeline that uses templates.

Pre-requisites:

  • Azure DevOps YAML pipeline that uses templates

Login to Azure DevOps and select a running or completed YAML pipeline.

Click on the more actions next to Run new button, as shown in the image below.


We can get a full YAML pipeline view as shown below.



This feature helps you compare your current YAML pipeline version with an older version of the YAML pipeline for debugging purposes.
