Decorator skipping not working

[Sai_Bellam]

I developed a decorator based on Microsoft documentation. The injecting part is working as expected and the skipping part is not working as expected. i tried it multiple times, in different ways according  to documentation provided by Microsoft and the injected decorator is not getting skipped.

Below is the method i followed from documentation. There is not enough documentation on capturing the decorator logs can you please advise.

steps:

- ${{ if ne(variables['skipInjecting'], 'true') }}:

  - script: echo Injected the decorator

and in the pipeline i added the variables

variables:

  skipInjecting: true

    steps:

     - script: echo This is the only step. No decorator is added.

I used the same syntax from the Microsoft Documentation.  somehow i don't see the decorator getting skipped.

Can you please advise?

Thanks

Sai

script: echo "$(variables['skipInjecting'])"
- task: ADOSecurityScanner@1
inputs:
OrgName: '$(System.CollectionUri)'
ProjectNames: '$(System.TeamProject)'
ScanFilter: 'All'


trigger:
- master

pool:
vmImage: ubuntu-latest

variables:

steps:
- script: echo This is the only step. No decorator is added.

- script: echo Hello, world!
