Azure Data Factory Validate Action

GitHub Action that validates all of the Azure Data Factory resources in your Git repository using the Azure Data Factory utilities package.

When to use

The action is particularly useful on Continuous Integration (CI) workflows, where a step can be added to check if all Data Factory resources (e.g. pipelines, activities, linked services, datasets, etc) in the target Git branch are valid before applying the changes during the Continuous Deployment (CD) phase.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

1. Ensure your Data Factory is connected with a Git repository. For more info, see Connect to a Git repository and Bicep & ARM Template formats.

2. Ensure the following package.json file exists in the same directory that contains your Data Factory resources in the Git repository:

   {
     "scripts":{
       "build":"node node_modules/@microsoft/azure-data-factory-utilities/lib/index"
     },
     "dependencies":{
       "@microsoft/azure-data-factory-utilities":"^0.1.5"
     }
   }

  - name: Validate Data Factory resources
