Automating workspace updates using Fabric's 'Update From Git' REST API

Check the article https://www.techtacofriday.com/automa... on my blog #TechTacoFriday for additional information 😁👍 and a link to the code I shown on the video I often receive questions from professionals looking to optimize their workflows, and sometimes these inquiries can benefit a much broader audience. One such question recently came my way, and I believe it’s worth exploring here: "I have 3 workspaces dev, test, prod, my dev workspace is synced with main branch so when I change something in my pbip file and commit it to main branch, so it shows updates in source control and every time I have to go to workspace and click push button. I want to automate this process. When I was watching your video on Youtube, you ran the pipeline that have already created but which task/step you have added to that pipeline is not clearly mentioned." This question, submitted anonymously to respect the privacy of the individual, raises a common challenge faced by many users. In this article, I’ll explain my suggested approach to automating this process, using Fabric's 'Update From Git' REST API to seamlessly update a workspace when new commits are pushed.
