Exam AZ-400 topic 7 question 2 discussion

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/templates?view=azure-devops#extend-from-a-template

Answer should be B. template: template1.yml Explanation: To ensure that the Template1.yaml runs before File1.yml, you can use the template keyword in File1.yml to reference Template1.yaml. The parameters section is used to pass values to the referenced template. In this case, we need to pass the usersteps parameter from File1.yml to Template1.yaml. Therefore, we need to include the parameters section in File1.yml, and reference the usersteps parameter in Template1.yaml. The correct syntax is shown in option B. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/templates?view=azure-devops#step-reuse

D) steps: - script: echo This script runs before the template's steps, only on Windows. - template: templates/npm-steps.yml # Template reference - script: echo This step runs after the template's steps.

Cannot figure out how C will work. Looked at the links as well. Not sure which one is answer.

As per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/templates?view=azure-devops&pivots=templates-includes#extend-from-a-template D is a correct option to run the template1.yml code before the steps of File1.yml

For those choosing option B, pls note that the syntax is wrong although your thinking of include is correct. The correct syntax in that case should be parameters: steps: - template: template1.yml - task: MyTask@1 - script: echo Done

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/templates?view=azure-devops Answer is C

Correct
