I have added few arguments to the existing Build Process template, so I can pass those arguments to Powershell Script which was invoked as part of build customization. I had defined those values for arguments under build process tab but somehow those arguments value are not showing up whenever build was queued.

Please help..

  1. In TFS 2013, the default build process template has included run script and add arguments, you can use it directly instead of customizing the build process template to invoke powershell scripts:

  1. You need to add arguments in Process Parameter Metadata Editor, then you'll see these arguments on Process tab in build definition. Refer to this blog: http://www.ewaldhofman.nl/post/2010/04/27/Customize-Team-Build-2010-e28093-Part-2-Add-arguments-and-variables.aspx

  1. Make sure you have checked in the custom build process template, and select the correct build process template in your build definition.
  1. You can go to TFS web access to check Diagnostics log to see whether you can see the arguments you added. If you can see them on Web Access, then your customization is correct. If you find you can see the arguments on web access, but not in VS, try to change the BuildMessageImportance of the variable to High.
