How can I push an image to an Azure Container Registry on a different account than the ADO Pipeline

Question

On My ADO account, I have created a service account of Azure Resource Manager but it doesn't work with this task.

• task: Docker@2 displayName: Push image to ACR inputs: command: push containerRegistry: 'MyAZConnection' # Your service connection name

The pipeline is not valid. Job Build: Step Docker2 input containerRegistry expects a service connection of type dockerregistry but the provided service connection MyAZConnection is of type azurerm.

If I create a new Docker Registry Service Connection, it only connects to a subscription within the same Microsoft account.

Is there some alternate way to push this image to ACR in different azure account ?

Answer 1

By default, Docker@2 only supports the dockerregistry type service connection.

Based on your requirement, you need to use the Azure Resource Manager Service Connection to deploy to different account. You can create a Manual type of Azure Resource Manager Service Connection.

You can change to use the Docker@1 or Docker@0 Task to use the Azure Resource Manager Service Connection.

For example:

steps:
- task: Docker@1
  displayName: 'Push an image'
  inputs:
    azureSubscriptionEndpoint: AzureRMServiceconnection
    azureContainerRegistry: containername
    command: 'Push an image'
