I set up two pipelines so that one pipeline would trigger when other pipeline finishes running but it doesn't seem to work but i confirmed that they are linked. what am i missing here?

From your YAML sample, you have set the pipeline trigger but it doesn't work.

You need to check the branch where the triggered pipeline yaml is located.

Then you can modify the Default branch for manual and scheduled builds in YAML pipeline.

Refer to the steps:

In Yaml, triggered pipeline yaml is in test branch.

Then navigate to Triggers -> YAML -> Default branch for manual and scheduled builds and change the branch.
