What’s better than automatic deploy pipelines? Not that much really. When merging to main, our React App automatically deploys to Azure Static Web Apps. Pretty neat! All secrets are of course stored in Github Secrets.

Our github workflow:

name: Azure Static Web Apps CI/CD

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, synchronize, reopened, closed]
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  build_and_deploy_job:
    if: github.event_name == 'push' || (github.event_name == 'pull_request' && github.event.action != 'closed')
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Build and Deploy Job
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
        with:
          submodules: true
          lfs: false
      - name: Set up API Key
        run: echo "API_KEY=${{ secrets.DATAVERSE_API_KEY }}" >> $GITHUB_ENV
      - name: Build And Deploy
        id: builddeploy
        uses: Azure/static-web-apps-deploy@v1
        with:
