This Azure DevOps extension allows you to upload build artifacts to Buildstash.

Buildstash is a platform for software teams to manage all their past builds, organize, share with team members, and steer through to deployment or publishing.

• Upload software builds, for any platform
• Attach associated metadata to builds - such as git commit, Azure Pipelines run data, etc
• Once stored in Buildstash, builds can be be powerfully organized, shared, and more

Install the extension to your Azure DevOps organization via the marketplace at https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Buildstash.buildstash-tasks

Add the Buildstash upload task to your pipeline script, using the example below.

Add the application specific API key as a secret variable for your pipeline, with name BUILDSTASH_API_KEY.

Note: You will need to have an active Buildstash account and API key for your application, sign up at buildstash.com

Add the "Upload to Buildstash" task to your Azure DevOps pipeline:

- task: BuildstashUpload@1 displayName: Upload to Buildstash inputs: apiKey: $(BUILDSTASH_API_KEY) structure: 'file' primaryFilePath: 'example.exe' versionComponent1Major: '1' versionComponent2Minor: '0' versionComponent3Patch: '1' versionComponentExtra: 'beta' versionComponentMeta: '2024.12.02' customBuildNumber: '12345' platform: 'windows' stream: 'default' # Optional build associations labels: |  to-review  signed  architectures: |  x64  x86   # Optional CI info ciBuildDuration: '15m30s' # Optional VC info vcHostType: 'git' vcHost: 'github' vcRepoName: $(Build.Repository.Name) vcRepoUrl: $(Build.Repository.Uri) vcBranch: $(Build.SourceBranchName) vcCommitSha: $(Build.SourceVersion) vcCommitUrl: $(Build.Repository.Uri)/commit/$(Build.SourceVersion)

• Primary File Path: Path to the primary build artifact file to upload
• Structure: Structure type for the upload (file or file+expansion)
• API Key: Buildstash API key for authentication (should be passed in as a secret variable)

• Expansion File Path: Path to the optional expansion file to upload (can be used to upload Android .obb files with a primary .apk)
• Version Components: Major, minor, patch version components, with optional extra and meta components
• Custom Build Number: Custom build number, in any preferred format
• Version Control Information: Host type, host, repository details, branch, commit information
• Platform: Platform name (must exactly match platform slug attached to your app)
• Stream: Stream name (must exactly match)
• Notes: Optional build notes

By default Azure DevOps will timeout jobs after 60 minutes.

This is probably fine, but if you are uploading a particularly massive build, or have a slow connection, you may wish to tweak this.

This is done on the job as below:

jobs: - job: Test timeoutInMinutes: 60 # how long to run the job before automatically cancelling in minutes - increase if needed for large uploads
