Hi All,

I am working on Talend CICD using Azure DevOps.

Note-

1- Initial Azure build steps are to download secure files like settings, maven-builder and license. All are correctly downloaded and referenced in next below steps.

2- Talend Commandline is running on localhost:8002 successfully.

3- Azure DevOps pipeline is running on windows self hosted agent and nexus server connnectivity is established from the agent.

4- Azure devops steps are referenced from Continuous Integration and Deployment using Azure DevOps | Talend Software Development Life Cycle Be...

5- Installed Talend Version is 7.3.1
