GoCD's Agent architecture doesn't run the entire job (within a stage) in a single shell. So if you export / set an environment variable in one task and try to access it in the next. It wouldn't work. I would suggest using a BAT/PS script (if you're on Windows) or shell script (if you're on Linux / Mac) to automate your workflows. Also it is a good practice to keep the job specific sequence of tasks outside GoCD so your CI/CD workflow is not tightly coupled to your CI/CD system.

Thanks,

I'm also facing the same problem. The variable is set in the same task instance.

Hi , 

You should use this environment variable to get counter. 

Example : ${GO_PIPELINE_COUNTER}
