Guide Basics

This guide assumes you are familiar with Azure DevOps Pipelines and have already installed our plugin from the DevOps marketplace.

Authenticating with Spira

In DevOps, open the project you would like to have builds sync with Spira. Go to Project Settings > Pipelines > Service Connections

Under Service connections, click the "New service connection" button and click "SpiraPlan Configuration." Under connection name, put something helpful like SpiraPlan Fred Bloggs

For SpiraPlan URL put the 'root' directory of your Spira instance, not including the end slash. For username, put the username you use to sign-in to Spira. For RSS Token, go to your user profile page in Spira, enable RSS Feeds and copy the token into DevOps. Now verify the connection by clicking "Verify connection," if you entered everything correctly, you're good to go!

Adding the Spira Build Task

Now in the pipeline you would like to add Spira support to, open the pipeline's YAML file and in the assistant to the right, search "Spira" and select "Export data to Spira" Select the service connection name you put in earlier, enter the ID of the project in Spira you would like your results sent to, the ID of the release you would like the builds to be associated with, and the base url of your DevOps instance (like https://dev.azure.com/fabrikam or https://fabrikam.visualstudio.com)

The other fields are used internally by the plugin and should be left as-is - DO NOT CHANGE THEM. Click "Add" and add the condition: succeededOrFailed() above inputs in the YAML snippet. This makes sure that the Spira task can access the current build status.

Now move the spira-build-task YAML Snippet to the end of the file so that it's executed last. This will make sure that the final result of the build gets recorded in Spira.

Here is an example YAML file:

trigger:
- master

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

steps:
- task: NodeTool@0
  inputs:
    versionSpec: '10.x'
  displayName: 'Install Node.js'
- script: |
    npm install
    npm test
  displayName: 'npm install and test'
- task: PublishTestResults@2
  condition: succeededOrFailed()
  inputs:
    testRunner: JUnit
    testResultsFiles: '**/junitresults-*.xml'
- task: spira-build-task@0
  condition: succeededOrFailed()
  inputs:
    connectedService: 'SpiraPlan Fred Bloggs'
    project: '2'
    releaseId: '20'
    baseUrl: 'https://dev.azure.com/inflectra'
    buildNumber: '$(Build.BuildNumber)'
    buildStatus: '$(Agent.JobStatus)'
    buildId: '$(Build.BuildId)'
    sourceVersion: '$(Build.SourceVersion)'
    projectName: '$(System.TeamProject)'

If everything had been configured correctly a new build in DevOps will create a new build in Spira!
