I'm wanting to get familiar with Azure DevOps and setting up CI/CD through it. For the backend services, I want to use Serverless Framework (SF). I'm getting stuck trying to add credentials to the CI pipeline for SF.
I'm following the instructions in this documentation page but I'm getting this error in the deploy step.
AWS provider credentials not found. Learn how to set up AWS provider credentials in our docs here:
These are the steps to reproduce:
- Create a SF service, initial a git repo and add it to the Azure project.
sls create -t aws-nodejs-typescript -p api-hello-service
cd api-hello-service
git init
git add .
git commit -m 'initial commit'
git remote add origin <origin>
In the Serverless Framework Dashboard, go to org and create an access key (save the key for later)

In the Azure DevOps GUI, refresh the Repo page and click the "Setup Build" button

Customize the pipeline
# azure-pipelines.yml
trigger:
- main
pool:
vmImage: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- task: NodeTool@0
inputs:
versionSpec: '16.x'
displayName: 'Install Node.js'
- script: |
npm install
npm install -g serverless
serverless deploy
displayName: 'npm install and build'
- Set the variable
SERVERLESS_ACCESS_KEYas described in the documentation earlier with the access key create in SF Dashboard earlier. (check "Keep this value secret") - Hit save & run
Deploy step fails:
