Replacing Variables in Metadata During Deployment Process
What is the correct sequence for replacing a variable with a specified value during deployment in metadata?
a. Variable, Pipeline, Key, Variables, Value, INT
b. Key, Environment, Variables, Pipeline, Value, INT
c. Variable, Environment, Key, Pipeline, Value, INT
d. Key, Pipeline, Variables, Value, Environment, INT
Answer:
The correct sequence for replacing a variable with a specified value during deployment in metadata is Key, Pipeline, Variables, Value, Environment, INT.
When committing or deploying files, if the key value is found in the metadata, it is automatically replaced by {!___.var_name}. For instance, you can create an environment variable in the Environment and name it Org_URL. You have also specified the key for each variable in the Pipeline. Upon deployment to the next environment, say INT, Copado will replace the variable with the value you added for INT. Therefore, the correct answer is: d. Key, Pipeline, Variables, Value, Environment, INT.
