Is it possible to override a connection string from either appveyor.yaml or the UI Settings?
I'd like to specify a database connection string to override the connection strings found in App.config and Web.config files. Is this possible, or do I need to transform the config files as part of my pre-build steps?

To override during the deployment?

No, before building.

I think I found a solution in my FAKE build script. I had just wondered if something were built in for this task. Is there something for deployments?

Yes, you can update config settings when publishing with Web Deploy: http://www.appveyor.com/docs/deployment/web-deploy#web-deploy-param...

We solved that by having a environment variable and then we read the value from that into a static field and if that isn't present we fallback to configuration file values (app/web.config) example for one of our EF6 solutions attached
