GitHub Actions workflows were passing inputs directly to deployment steps without validation, risking misconfiguration and late-stage failures. This adds early validation and standardizes input handling via environment variables.
Changes
Input validation step - Added validation for all required inputs (ENV_NAME, AZURE_LOCATION, RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME, etc.) at workflow start. Checks presence, format, and validates optional resource IDs if provided. Fails fast with clear error messages.
Environment variable mapping - Replaced direct
${{ inputs.* }}references with environment variables (e.g.,INPUT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME,INPUT_WAF_ENABLED). All deployment steps now consume validated variables instead of raw inputs.Applied to both workflows - Changes implemented in both
.github/workflows/job-deploy-linux.ymland.github/workflows/job-deploy-windows.ymlfor consistency.Example validation:
Subsequent steps reference
$INPUT_ENV_NAMEinstead of${{ inputs.ENV_NAME }}, ensuring validated values throughout the workflow.✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
