Hi @markatky46 could you please advise what is your organization name? And I will check why you got pre-release version. For security reasons you can e-mail me your organization name: v-lisabitova@microsoft.com

We’ve rolled out the related changes for this issue. Feel free to reopen the ticket in case you face any problem.

There’s been a new agent version pushed 3.220.2

We’ve tested it and it’s resolved our problem with downloading artifacts.

Hi @Ondrashx @svbrburgman @kauemendes @kraduk @MATTHEWTAYLOR1995 @epmenard Could you please also share the names of your ADO organizations. For security reasons you can e-mail your organization names here: v-lisabitova@microsoft.com

Need them to define which changes in the vss api package caused the issue. Thank you.

We are also seeing this issue. We are unable to downgrade the agent as we use VMSS instances that are ephemeral. We identified a quick fix without downgrading the agent: ISSUE:- task: DownloadBuildArtifacts@1 This task is downloading the container but its not downloading the contents in the container ie., zip file. Hence facing the path error.

FIX:- download task version to 0: DownloadBuildArtifacts@0

May i ask also why a pre-release version has been rolled out and being consumed like a general release by my cloud service? Is there any way for us to select only general release versions?

Thanks all for providing the example pipelines and details! We were able to reproduce the issue and define the root cause and we’re working on fixing it.

@svbrburgman @epmenard @Ondrashx @kauemendes @kraduk @MATTHEWTAYLOR1995 Could you please provide example pipeline YAML-file? Because we cannot reproduce the issue.

Hi, we run into similar issue yesterday. What helped was to rename the artifactName of the published task, so it does not contain any dots. So, e.g. from ENV.Release -> ENVRelease. The download task than was able to download all the files in artifact.
