D365BC Setup Build Agent

Helper to get started with your own Build Agent on Azure for Dynamics 365 Business Central using ALOps on Azure DevOps.

The PowerShell code is probably not best-practice, but it's meant as a starting point for people having trouble getting started 😊

Attention You'll need to have at least "User Access Administrator"-permissions in the used Azure Subscription, otherwise you're not able to create Automation Accounts

Info

Clone this repository, update Parameters.ps1 in sub-directory "Parameters" and run it. When the script is completed you'll have

1. A new Build Agent VM (based on Freddys template (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/nav-arm-templates/master/buildagent.json))
2. A scheduled RunBook that automatically starts/stops the VM to avoid high costs
3. (Almost) all necessary elements in your DevOps repository to get started (see documentation in RunSetup.ps1)

Thanks to

• FreddyDK for just everything 😊
• HodorNV/waldo for ALOps and the pipeline-templates
• Megel for his examples
• and of course the many, many StackOverflow-/TechNet-post that helped 😉
