Azure-pipelines-tasks: Select artifacts download by glob pattern

[damienpontifex]

The release agent can be configured to "Skip artifacts download", but wondering whether a task could be created for artifact download that allowed a glob pattern to be specified?

As an example:
We have multiple Environments in the release pipeline, one of which only does an ARM deployment which only needs two json files. We still need to download all artifacts to be able to get just these two files in this step.

Sorry Damien, currently we do not have support for partial artifacts download, we have it in backlog and we will be picking up support for this.

Release time could be cut by half if I was able to specify downloading of artifacts per environment.

We have this on our backlog. However it will be 2-3 months before we can get to it based on current priorities. Closing it for now.

Thanks

Hi @damienpontifex

I know this is a very late reply. But I have a component in Marketplace which can filter artifacts for downloading.

Hope this helps until something is available in default artifacts download steps.

@RoopeshNair Why did you close this if you haven't done it yet?

@phatcher we are tracking this internally.
