GitHub Actions

The GitHub Action Workflow will bundle the package and then publish to the ACR described in the manifest file. To use this Action Workflow make the following changes:

1. Cerate a Repository Secret Named "AZURE_ACR". Must be the same as the ACR in your manifest file. This is used in the "Build and Publish Bundle" step.
   1. On the top of the repository select "Settings"
   2. On the left hand side select "Secrets" followed by "Actions" in the dropdown.
   3. Select "New repository secret"
   4. In the name, enter "AZURE_ACR"
   5. For the secret, enter your ACR login server
2. Create the following Repository Secrets: AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, and AZURE_TENANT_ID. This enables "OIDC Login to Azure Public Cloud" step
   • The values must match the values of your service principal which has access to the ACR
   • Follow the same steps when adding the AZURE_ACR secret
