Deployment pipeline branching / distribution

Hi,

 

We're looking for a way to publish reports based on a single template to multiple workspaces with different parameters for each workspace. Ideally the solution should look like below:

The idea is to only maintain a single "master" template in our CI/CD proces, while being able to distribute it to different workspaces with different parameters for customization purposes. Are there any current solutions avaiable to achieve this?

 

As a feature request, this might be a possible addition to the current deployment pipeline- but with the added ability to "branch out" from test -> development?

 

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts,

 

/M

    And I thought Deployment Pipelines are a solution looking for a problem...

     

    Anyway, have you considered using ALM Toolkit to distribute your ITG meta data to the PROD environments?

      ALM might be a good option - however as far as i know there is no CLI avaiable, so automation will be a challenge (ie. if i want to distribute the template to 5 different PROD workspaces, i will have to do it manually for each)

       

      Thanks,

        Out of curiosity what is your business need for that setup? I work in a large enterprise company with thousands of Power BI developers and we don't use deployment pipelines at all.
