Intro This is a short post to demonstrate how you can use a cache in Azure DevOps (Azure Pipelines) to store any PowerShell module that you need during your pipeline.
Don’t let your pipeline rely on the availability PowerShell Gallery! This goes for anything really, but in this post I’m focusing on the PowerShell Gallery. There are two simple reasons for this statement:

Intro Azure Functions support for PowerShell has been generally available since November 4, 2019 and is working great!
In my last post on designing Azure Function App for production I showed how to set up and configure a Function App to run PowerShell in Azure. In this post I’ll cover how to deploy our first function to it and things to consider when developing the PowerShell code that will run in the Function App.
