Judging by your output, I would hazard a guess that ‘$’ escapes the ‘$’, so to get ‘$$’ you would use ‘$$$$’, not ‘\$\$’. Just a guess though.

I am using the Credentials Plugin "username:password". I get the credentials using the "use secrets" option into the environment but the special characters are getting messed up. It appears the Plugin is not recognizing the backslash as a special character. I have a $$ in my password string and that somehow gets translated to $. Is there a separate set of escape characters it understands. \$\$ translates to \$\$ but \$$ translates to \$ Thanks Shobha. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
