Answer 1

In my case I use azure template but change vmImage: "windows-latest", When I check logs, find out build command didn't run so I figure out I should change default script of install and build to separate script

trigger:
- main

pool:
  vmImage: 'windows-latest'

variables:
  buildFolder: 'build'

steps:
- task: NodeTool@0
  inputs:
    versionSpec: '10.x'
  displayName: 'Install Node.js'

- script: |
    npm install
  displayName: 'npm install'

- script: |
    npm run build
  displayName: 'npm build'

- task: CopyFiles@2
  inputs:
    contents: 'build/**'
    targetFolder: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
    cleanTargetFolder: true

- task: ArchiveFiles@2
  inputs:
    rootFolderOrFile: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)
    archiveType: 'zip'
    archiveFile: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip'
    includeRootFolder: false

- task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
  inputs:
    pathtoPublish: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip'
    artifactName: 'drop'
    publishLocation: 'Container'
