Azure devops is for deploymnet and why do you want to add parameters in to process while deploying?

Cheers

@ThomasStocker we believe we found a bug in the UiPath plugin for Azure devops activities, when we try to execute jobs with specific parameters the json file we create within the UiPath project is not getting recognized at all, can you provide any input?

Hello @Sergio_Rodarte @Orlando_Preciado,

When you execute the UiPathRunJob task there is the parameter parametersFilePath that allows sending a local path to a json file with the process arguments in a json format.

Note: You need to make sure the json file exists on the Agent running the pipeline, you might need to clone it from your git repository or directly create it in your pipeline.

Examples:

  • How to use UiPathRunJob in your Azure pipeline
  - task: UiPathRunJob@4
    displayName: 'Execute job with input parameters'
    inputs:
      orchestratorConnection: '$(orchestratorConn)'
      processName: '$(processName)'
      parametersFilePath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)\jobParameters.json'
      folderName: '$(orchestratorFolder)'
      resultFilePath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)\results.json'
  • Arguments Json file
{
  "Configuration": "MyConfigurationValue",
  "Dic_Data": {
    "Key1": "Value1",
    "Key2": "Value2"
  }
}
