Automate the deployment pipelines programmatically(CICD)

[Fabuser_123]

I have two envs dev and prod. I am using deployment pipelines to deploy the changes from dev to prod. I want the process to be automated. Also, need to set up the deployment rules to change the vaiables between dev and prod. Can I get the detailed steps on how to implement this. 

I also want to automate the deployment to dev when my PR is merged to the main branch and changes are updated automatically to dev workspace.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Fabuser_123 ,

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

Could you please let us know if the issue has been resolved? I wanted to check if you had the opportunity to review the information provided by @KevinChant , @svenchio and @tayloramy  . If you still require support, please let us know, we are happy to assist you.

Thank you.

HI, Thanks for checking. I will mark it as resolved once I implement the soution, which might take a few weeks.

Thanks

Hi @Fabuser_123  this is a very big as ask  😅! I abstracted from your description these two requests  ... 

#1. How to automate a feature deployment using Fabric deployment pipelines (on git merge, trigger deployment stage dev>prod) 

#2. How to set up the deployment rules to change environemnt specific variables between dev and prod

If this is correct, let's tackle one at a time because the techniques and process are different, just contributing to the same goal. 

#1.

I'm going to assume you are using MSFT DevOps, in my blog some time ago, i published something similiar, I recorded a video 

showing how to Automating workspace updates using Fabric's 'Update From Git' REST API here's the link https://www.techtacofriday.com/automating-workspace-updates-using-fabric-api/  this is very close of what you're trying to achieve, you can take the code that pushes changed to the source and add a new process to trigger the deployment pipeline stage using API calls using these steps: 

Step #1. first you need to identify your deployment pipeline via Deployment Pipelines - Get Deployment Pipeline - REST API (Core) | Microsoft Learn 

Step 2. Then get the ID of your pipeline and get its stages via  Deployment Pipelines - List Deployment Pipeline Stages - REST API (Core) | Microsoft Learn

Step 3. Get the stage ID that correspond to dev>prod and deploy the state via Deployment Pipelines - Deploy Stage Content - REST API (Core) | Microsoft Learn  

#2.

For this one, there are basically two methods, using variable libraries, I also recently published a video on my blog on this topic  Deployment Pipelines in Fabric: The Right Way to Handle Lakehouse Shortcuts  and the second is DEPLOYMENT RULES, and I also have a video for you on this topic here Demystifying Fabric Deployment Pipelines 

Plenty of information to digest, right? I hope you find it useful, THERE'S A LOT OF MATERIAL AND TECHNIQUES IN THIS RESOURCES! The good thing is that is all on my blog and created by me, so, if you have a specific question on any of the videos or code, subscribe and give me a ping! If you find this information useful, WOULD YOU MIND GIVE ME A KUDOS?! I appreciate  and if this solve your problem, mark this as a solution for other people looking for the same info.

Hi @Fabuser_123, 

See this blog post about deployment pipelines, Kevin does a great job at explaining them: 
Fabricators guide to Microsoft Fabric deployment pipelines - K Chant

If you found this helpful, consider giving some Kudos. If I answered your question or solved your problem, mark this post as the solution.

I do my best. Just to add to this, if you are looking to automate the deployments to different stages in a deployment pipeline you'll probably want to go through this post which covers how to do it in Azure DevOps using the PowerShell script provided by Microsoft:
