Updates to Azure Pipelines Runtime Variables Settings [Updated]

Gloridel Morales

We have gotten a lot of feedback on this change and after internal deliberation, we are now rolling back this change ASAP.

Final Update as of 5/19/22 @ 10:08 AM PST:

  • We have now fully rolled back the change that caused the issue. You should no longer experiencing this issue. * We will go back to the drawing board to re-work this fix. Our goal is to provide a high bar of security without breaking our customers.

  • We will also do a postmortem on this change to gain a better understanding of what went wrong. Our goal is to understand what we missed so we avoid rolling out this kind of breaking changes in the future.

Again, I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience and disruption this has caused. We remain deeply committed to making sure our customers have a first-class experience using Azure DevOps. Cheers!

    Hello, I am getting the same error on my classic build pipelines (You can’t set the following variables) and there is no option in the classic build Variable UI to mark them as “settable at queue time”. Did the bad change get rolled out again?
