Manually uploaded Azure artifacts issue

[adjurdjevic]

Hi
I have Classic Release pipeline which deploy couple of Universal Package from Azure Artifact together with a couple of artifacts which are associated with build pipelines. For this manually uploaded artifacts i receive a error in release generation task

Looking at artifact [App]
Artifact type [Build]
Build Definition ID [undefined]
Build Number: [undefined]
Is Primary: [undefined]
Looking for the [App] in the most recent successful release [TEST 26.08.2024 - Rel. 3]
Found artifact [App] with build number [undefined] in release [TEST 26.08.2024 - Rel. 3]
Build for artifact [AppCosmoEdi] has not changed. Nothing to do
Getting test associated with the latest build [undefined]
The most common runtime reason for the task to fail is due API ECONNRESET issues. To avoid this failing the pipeline these will be treated as warnings and an attempt to generate any release notes possible

}

After this error further generation of release note stop and task produce file without any work items/commits in it.
Can this problematic artifacts be somehow skipped or not included to avoid this error and to continue generation for the rest of artifacts.

Thank you

I found out that this issue is probably related to issue #937. When I remove this function and run testconsole without it, release notes get generated. Is there a way to create variable for this fix as you do for fix 349?

Thx

I think the issue is that it is trying to get release notes for an artifact that is not a build (hence all the API calls fail). I suspect it only needs a guard clause to make sure it skips over this type of resource.

I have converted this thread to an issue to track getting the work done, not sure when it will be but it is on the backlog, but happy to look at PRs
