Step 22 - Replace Tokens in Logic App Parameters file - Build

In this task I am pointing to the Logic App parameters file and running the replace tokens task over it. It is also possible to override tokens in the Logic App deploy task but I found that in practice the challenge with that 2nd approach was if I got settings wrong I wasnt able to troubleshoot very easily what the settings that were used were. Based on this I decided to change and use a template file for the parameters which contains tokens. I would then replace the tokens with values from the pipeline variables. If I need to troubleshoot I can choose to include this file in the pipeline artifacts so I can download and troubleshoot it.

A picture of the configuration of this task is below:
