The Continuous delivery setting for Azure VMSS will be retired on 31 March 2023 – Use Azure DevOps to create pipelines

Published date: 21 October, 2022

On 31 March 2023, the Azure Continuous delivery setting for Virtual Machine Scale Set will be retired. Please start using Azure DevOps to directly create pipelines by that date.

Note that all of the pipelines created will still be available and functional in Azure DevOps portal. Only the experience of creating/viewing the Azure DevOps pipeline from Azure portal will be retired.

We encourage you to make the switch sooner to familiarise yourself with the Azure DevOps portal and its extensive capabilities.

From now until 31 March 2023, you can continue to create and view pipelines from the Continuous delivery setting of a Virtual Machine Scale Set in Azure portal. After 31 March 2023, this setting will not be available to use.

Required action

To avoid disruptions to your workflow, start using Azure DevOps before 31 March 2023. You can familiarise yourself with the creation of customized pipelines using Azure DevOps
