I'm trying to upload keys to azure devops as secure files to use in pipeline context, I only found manual upload but it is not option, Is there a way it can be automated thorough powershell or any pipeline tasks? please suggest.
You can use REST API to do this:
POST https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/distributedtask/securefiles?api-version=5.0-preview.1&name={fileName}
Content-Type=application/octet-stream
Please check this topic on GitHUb.
You will find there even powershell script:
param
(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] $PAT,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$True)][ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]$AzureDevOpsOrg,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$True)][ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]$AzureDevOpsProjectID,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] $SecureNameFile2Upload,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] $SecureNameFilePath2Upload
)
try{
$base64AuthInfo=[Convert]::ToBase64String([Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f "",$PAT)))
$uploadSecureFileURI="https://dev.azure.com/$AzureDevOpsOrg/$AzureDevOpsProjectID/_apis/distributedtask/securefiles?api-version=5.0-preview.1&name=$SecureNameFile2Upload"
$headers = @{
Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)
}
Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uploadSecureFileURI -Method Post -ContentType "application/octet-stream" -Headers $headers -InFile "$SecureNameFilePath2Upload"
}
catch
{
write-host -f Red "Error upload client certificate file [$SecureNameFilePath2Upload] to AzureDevOps secure file!" $_.Exception.Message
throw "Error occors -> $_.Exception.Message"
}
