We have an azure container registry where the imagename is in this format.
image: <acr_name>//:
Earlier with only <acr_name>/: it worked.
But with /<branch_name> added, I am getting error as
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
frontend-7c96f879c5-45nsx 1/2 InvalidImageName 0 9m5s
How to use this now in kubernetes environment?
The image is there in the acr.

Hello @Uday Kiran Reddy (ureddy) ,
I just tried with below sample image format in ACR and it went through successfully
kubectl run httpd --image=acrrepositoryname.azurecr.io/server/httpd:2.4
Let me know if that helps !
Regards,
Shiva.
it seems the issue is with case of image name.
I have kept $(Build.SourceBranchName) during the image creation in azure devops.
ACR is converting to lowercase to save.
But, during deployment, it used the original name with capital letters and getting this error, now I checked in pod description.
invalid reference format: repository name must be lowercase
Is there any way you suggest to get the lowercase version there?
Or in the yaml file of kubernetes to read as lowercase?
I am trying the below code but it is not working in pipeline.
$branchname=$(echo $(Build.SourceBranchName) | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')

For the latest issue in Devops variable , can you try to use lower function to convert the variable value to all lowercase

Check out the below articles if that helps:

If the lower function is not working for you , if you are using some dependent variables , try the alternative options mentioned here:
