Rename build pipeline .yml files in Azure DevOps

Problem

I have a .NET Core application that has three build pipelines. (Windows, Linux, macOS)
In each of them, the application gets assembled a little different. This part works so far.

Azure created for each pipeline a .yml file in the root folder of the repository.

  • azure-pipelines.yml (Linux Build)



  • azure-pipelines-1.yml (Windows Build)



  • azure-pipelines-2.yml (macOS Build)



I would like to rename them to something like azure-pipelines-platform.yml

But when I do so, the configuration in Azure gets broken. I can rename the build configuration, but not the file. And I find no way to configure the link between .yml file and Build config in DevOps

Is it generally not possible to rename the .yml files?

Solution

As suggested by @030, I have prepared two screenshots that show how to connect the .yml files with the build pipeline.

-
Rename the .yml file in the repository

-
Open the pipeline editor

-
Select the file from the dropdown

-
Select the in step 1 renamed *.yml file and click on save.

After the existing .yml is assigned, the pipeline works as before the renaming.
