I have a solution with a project that has a package reference to Newtonsoft as follows:
<PackageReference Include="Newtonsoft.Json">
<Version>12.0.3</Version>
</PackageReference>
It compiles fine on my computer but when I run the azure pipeline, I get the following:
##[error]Utils\JsonExtensions.cs(7,7): Error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Newtonsoft' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
The following is the contents of my azure-pipelines.yml:
# .NET Desktop
# Build and run tests for .NET Desktop or Windows classic desktop solutions.
# Add steps that publish symbols, save build artifacts, and more:
