Cannot get custom variable value from Azure DevOps Release
In an Azure DevOps Release, I want to create a new variable inside a PowerShell task :
Write-Output ("##vso[task.setvariable variable=MYVAR;]myValue 1")
Write-host $env:MYVAR
Write-host $MYVAR
Write-Host "##vso[task.setvariable variable=MYVAR;]myValue 2"
Write-Host "$env:MYVAR"
Write-host $MYVAR
I was expecting the result to be:
myValue 1
myValue 1
myValue 2
myValue 2
But I got 4 empty values. I didn' find any clue in Microsoft documentation.
Am I missing something?
powershell tfs

i dont think it will exist in the same step. you can access that in subsequent steps though

What a shame, so weird it's only available outside the current task :( Thanks for your quick answer. Please create proper one and I will accept it.

well, this kinda makes sense. you can use powershell directly to store this variable in this step.
