The Azure App Service Environment (ASE) allows you to deploy Azure Web Apps into a private environment for enhanced security and access control. One challenge with this configuration is how to orchestrate Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) with Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server into such environments.
This template deploys a VSTS/TFS build agent into the Virtual Network where the ASE is deployed and connects this agent to a VSTS or TFS instance. It also adds appropriate hosts file entries to the agent to allow it to deploy to a specific Web App in an ASE.
To ensure that the configuration of the agen is correct, you need to supply:
TSServerUrl: Url of your VSTS/TFS instanceAgentPool: Name of the agent pool in the VSTS/TFS instance (needs to be created in advance)PAToken: Personal Access Token for agent to register with the VSTS/TFS instanceAseIp: The IP address of the ASE environment.AppDns: The DNS name of the app, e.g. myapp.contoso-internal.us
