I am trying to authenticate with a specific user that has access to pull down a package from a specific Azure Artifact Feed View using a Release Pipeline (which doesn't have the option of being fully YML) in Azure.
My workflow is to allow certain packages to be available via the @rc feed view and not always pull the latest package from the @local feed view since the @local feed view can have multiple packages that are dev builds which aren't ready for RC. I'm attempting to authenticate using an NPM Authenticate task but that doesn't give me the option to specify account details of a user that has isolated access to the @rc feed view.
I'm also not sure which user is actually being authenticated in the pipeline when that Release Pipeline task is run and according to the docs, it's the build user which isn't too clear.
