# Azure DevOps

You can easily publish Live Updates to Capawesome Cloud using [Azure Pipelines](https://azure.microsoft.com/de-de/products/devops/pipelines){:target="_blank"}.
In this guide, we will show you how to create a Azure pipeline that builds your web assets and creates a bundle on Capawesome Cloud using the [Capawesome CLI](../../cli/index.md).

## Preparation

Before you start, make sure you have a Capawesome Cloud account and an app set up. Next, you need to create a Capawesome Cloud token and add it to your Azure Pipeline as a secure variable.

### Create a Capawesome Cloud token

Create a new Capawesome Cloud token via the [Capawesome Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.capawesome.io/settings/tokens){:target="_blank"}. Just navigate to the `Tokens` page in the settings and click on the `Create token` button. Choose a name for the token and click on the `Create` button. The token is now copied to your clipboard.

### Create a Azure Pipeline Variable

Add the Capawesome Cloud token to your Azure Pipeline as a secure variable with the name `CAPAWESOME_CLOUD_TOKEN` as described in [Set secret variables](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/variables?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml%2Cbatch#secret-variables){:target="_blank"}.

## Pipeline

### Create the Pipeline

Create a new Azure Pipeline file in your repository under `azure-pipelines.yml` with the following content:

```yaml
trigger: none

parameters:
  - name: channel
    displayName: Channel
    type: string

pool:
  vmImage: ubuntu-latest

jobs:
- job: Deploy
  displayName: Build web assets
  steps:
  - checkout: self
    displayName: Checkout
  - task: UseNode@1
    inputs:
      version: 20.x
    displayName: Install Node.js
  - script: npm ci
    displayName: Install Dependencies
  - script: npm run build
    displayName: Build web assets
  - script: npm install -g @capawesome/cli@latest
    displayName: Install Capawesome CLI
  - script: npx @capawesome/cli apps:channels:create --app-id 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 --name $env:CHANNEL --ignore-errors
    displayName: Create a channel on Capawesome Cloud
    env:
      CAPAWESOME_CLOUD_TOKEN: $(CAPAWESOME_CLOUD_TOKEN)
      CHANNEL: ${{ parameters.channel }}
  - script: npx @capawesome/cli apps:liveupdates:upload --app-id 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 --channel $env:CHANNEL --path dist
    displayName: Create a bundle on Capawesome Cloud
    env:
      CAPAWESOME_CLOUD_TOKEN: $(CAPAWESOME_CLOUD_TOKEN)
      CHANNEL: ${{ parameters.channel }}
```

This pipeline will build your web assets, log in to Capawesome Cloud, create a channel (if it does not exist yet), and create a bundle for the specified channel.

### Trigger the Pipeline

You can then trigger the pipeline manually by running it in the Azure Pipelines UI or by using the Azure Pipelines API. You will be prompted to enter the channel name. Of course, you can also trigger the pipeline automatically by specifying a different trigger.
