Azure DevOps Runbook Run task does not support config-as-code runbooks

[geofflamrock]

Severity

Blocking at least one customer, there is a workaround but not ideal

Version

Present from any version where config-as-code runbooks are enabled

Latest Version

I could reproduce the problem in the latest build

What happened?

Support for storing runbooks in Git for a config-as-code enabled project is rolling out to Octopus Cloud customers.

The Octopus Deploy Extension for Azure DevOps has a task which can be used in build and release pipelines to run a runbook. This extension does not currently support running runbooks that have been converted to be stored in a Git repository. Attempting to use this task will result in an error There was a problem with your request. Received a request for a version-controlled resource on a non-version control route. To access this resource, include a Git ref in the route.

Reproduction

On an Octopus Cloud instance that has support for runbooks stored in Git for config-as-code enabled projects:

• Create a new project and a runbook or convert runbooks in an existing project to be stored in a Git repository.
• Use the Runbook Run task to attempt to run a runbook

Workaround

Potential workarounds include:

• Use the octopus cli in a custom script instead of the task. The CLI can be installed into a build or release pipeline using the Octopus CLI Installer task.
