Jenkins Pipeline - build job step, ability to return build job number

[Kai]

Hi,

We are using Jenkins Pipeline - build job step and wanted the ability to return build job number so that we can use the build job # in the next step.

e.g.

buildJobNumber=build job: 'my-test-job', parameters: [string(name: 'environment', value: 'QA')], quietPeriod: 10

Then be able to use buildJobNumber in the next stage.

Thanks

The build job step returns a RunWrapper object, and in your case you can use the getId method

def buildObj = build job: 'my-test-job', parameters: [string(name: 'environment', value: 'QA')], quietPeriod: 10

echo buildObj.getId()

Cheers
