Work with Pipelines
AZD provides a dedicated Pipeline Tool Window for a centralized view of your CI/CD workflows.
View and Manage Pipelines
Monitor all your Azure DevOps Pipelines directly in the IDE.
Select a pipeline from the list to view its latest runs.
Click a specific run to open the details view.
Approvals and Validations
If a pipeline run requires an approval or a manual validation, you can handle it directly in the IDE.
The approval panel appears at the bottom of the build header. You can review the instructions, add a comment, and approve or reject the request.
Analyze Logs with AI
For failed pipeline runs, you can use the AI assistant to analyze the logs and identify the root cause of the failure.
Click the AI icon in the log viewer to send the stage logs to the AI provider for analysis and chat about the results.
