Azure Static Web App CI/CD
Hi everyone! I know this is a silly question, but I want to ask why, after connecting my Azure Static Web App to my GitHub and it would connect the Git Workflow, the commit would fail. Although, I ha...
A Static Web App deployment will fail if the GitHub workflow cannot build or validate the app.
Typical causes include:
- Missing required API/backend folder structure.
- The app_location, api_location, or output_location in azure-static-web-apps.yml not matching your repo layout.
- Dependencies not installed or missing build steps in the GitHub Actions pipeline.
- The Static Web App URL being set before other required Azure resources (Maps, AI Services, etc.) are provisioned.
Check the workflow logs in GitHub Actions — they will show exactly which step is failing.
Once the folder paths and build commands match your repo structure, commits will deploy successfully.
