Can we parameterize the pool name in the below highlighted section? below is the deployment file.
while running pipeline i should provide pool name so that deployment file will take pool name and run it while running the pipeline

Hello,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,
Yes, you can define the variables and initialize them with the default value in the YAML file. While triggering the pipeline manually, you will be able to override the value.
variables:
poolName: MySelfHostedPool
jobs:
- job: MyJob
displayName: My Job
pool:
name: $(poolName)
While running pipeline I want to enter pool name
Yeah, if you have the variable created, you can enter the pool name when triggering the pipeline.
