Tengo problemas con una canalización de compilación.

Los grupos de agentes están alojados VS2017

The YAML es

pool:
  vmImage: 'VS2017-Win2016'

variables:
  buildConfiguration: 'Debug'

steps:
- task: DotNetCoreInstaller@0
  displayName: 'Use .NET Core sdk 2.1.5'
  inputs:
    version: 2.1.403


- task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
  displayName: Restore
  inputs:
    command: restore

    projects: '**/Api*.csproj'


#Your build pipeline references an undefined variable named ‘Parameters.projects’. Create or edit the build pipeline for this YAML file, define the variable on the Variables tab. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=865972
#Your build pipeline references the ‘BuildConfiguration’ variable, which you’ve selected to be settable at queue time. Create or edit the build pipeline for this YAML file, define the variable on the Variables tab, and then select the option to make it settable at queue time.

- task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
  displayName: Build
  inputs:
    projects: '$(Parameters.projects)'

    arguments: '--configuration $(BuildConfiguration)'

- task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
  displayName: 'Publish Artifact'
  inputs:
    PathtoPublish: '$(build.artifactstagingdirectory)'

Cuando se ejecuta, la tarea de compilación tiene el siguiente registro

Tengo en cuenta que el registro se refiere a 2.141.0, donde como estoy restaurando el último SDK 2.1.403 ¿Por qué sería eso? ¿Podría ser que el agente VS2017 alojado no sea compatible con la última versión de .netcore?

[Actualizar

Agregué una variable para Parameters.projects

Sin embargo, la tarea de compilación aún tiene un error.
