P.S. I have checked build pipeline, I can download build Artificats, but it displays below warning.

[warning]Directory 'D:\a\1\a' is empty. Nothing will be added to build artifact 'drop'.

As task "Publish Build Artifact" publish artifact from $(build.artifactstagingdirectory), so we need add a task "Copy files" to copy your files ** from $(system.defaultworkingdirectory) to $(build.artifactstagingdirectory) **. which copied my build to stagingdirectory.

Thanks cece Dong for review, but this is one of the problem is solved, but still entire issue is not solved. – Jatin Dave Jul 27 '20 at 05:11

No, issue is same as it can't find build artifacts. – Jatin Dave Jul 27 '20 at 07:13
I'm a little confused that what's the meaning of this answer if the issue is not solved? How did you define the artifact in the release pipeline? And how did you define the `Deploy Azure App Service` task? Could you elaborate your issue? – Cece Dong - MSFT Jul 27 '20 at 08:13

Assuming you meant you have solved the build artifact empty issue, but the release pipeline still had issue in Azure App Service deploy task.

As the error mentioned, there is "No package found with specified pattern: D:\a\r1\a\Drop", you need to check how you define the package, try format $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/**/*.zip instead of $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)\Drop.
