Power Platform Pipelines delegated deployments, part 3 - Manipulating Deployment Settings JSON
This video is demonstrating how to manipulate the Deployment Setting JSON file in the Power Platform Pipelines. The settings file keeps values for all environment variables and connection IDs for the variables and connections used in the target environment. The approach to define the JSON and to use it during deployments is common in DevOps Pipelines, so why not to do that in Power Platform? :)
