Deprecation Notice

This Action is deprecated. Instead, you can set up ongoing configuration file import using Azure CLI GitHub action, which offers full capabilities for file importing to your App Configuration store.

Azure App Configuration Sync

This action syncs configuration files in the repository to an App Configuration instance. This enables scenarios where the App Configuration instance is automatically updated when changes are made through GitHub workflows.

JSON, YAML, and .properties files are supported. For the full list of action inputs, see Inputs.

To start using this GitHub action, go to your repository and click the "Actions" tab. This GitHub action will be available from the marketplace under the name "Azure App Configuration Sync". See the usage section below for an example of how to set up the action yml file. For a more in-depth view of GitHub workflows and actions click here.

Connection string

The connection string for the App Configuration instance should be stored as a secret in the GitHub repository. The secret should be used in the workflow.

Usage example

The following example updates the App Configuration instance each time a change is made to appsettings.json in the master branch.

# File: .github/workflows/syncConfiguration.yml

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - 'master'
    paths:
      - 'appsettings.json'

jobs:
  syncconfig:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: azure/appconfiguration-sync@v1
        with:
          configurationFile: 'appsettings.json'
          format: 'json'
          # Replace <ConnectionString> with the name of the secret in your repository
          connectionString: ${{ secrets.<ConnectionString> }}
          separator: ':'
