Change NPM version used in Could Manager Frontend Pipelines

[JakubIz]

Hello,

our team is using Frontend Pipelines to deploy our frontend code to AEMaaCS, as described here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/dev...

We would like to migrate our project to the newer nodejs, and npm versions, but it seems, by default, Cloud Manager pipelines are using an older npm version (not sure which one exactly), because our project that has been migrated to npm 10.x.x, no longer builds on the Cloud Manager.

I see there is a way to set the version of Node with a special env variable (as mentioned in the article from the link above), but is there a way to do the same with NPM?

How can we check which version of NPM our Frontend Pieplines are currently using? And how can we change it?

Cheers,

Jakub

Hi @JakubIz 

you can set the desire version in POM as well

I dont think this works with Frontend Pipelines approach.
