Well, there are a few ways to do this: The Parameterized Trigger plugin lets you trigger one job from another and pass to that job a set of parameters. You can use the $BUILD_NUMBER and $JOB_NAME as parameters.
There is also the Build Flow plugin that provide a DSL for scripting job execution. It exposes some underlying Jenkins objects that you can fetch all kinds of information from and pass onto other jobs, again, as parameters. -----Original Message----- From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Adam Mercer Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2014 9:13 AM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Getting metadata of another sub-project in Multijob project Can anyone offer any help regarding this?
