Unable to get value of password parameter into another parameter

[Gajanan Mahajan]

In Jenkins pipeline parameter say `Branches` of type `Active Choice Reactive Parameter`, I've to auto-populate branch names hence I've following command, which I can execute in parameter's Groovy script -

    svn ls <url> --non-interactive --no-auth-cache --trust-server-cert --username <username>--password <password>

`username` can be retrieved using `User.current().getId()`

I've `Password` parameter of `Password Parameter` type. To use value of this parameter in Groovy script of `Branches`, I've added `Password` parameter in `Referenced parameters` of `Branches` 

But I cannot see its value reflected in `Branches` parameter. Can you please suggest how this can be handled?

Or any other way to pass Password value or authentication details so I can execute svn command.

You should use the credtentials,

 

withCredentials() {

}

 

Add the credentials to you Jenkins config then use the command above, it will also prevent the print output of the password into the log and change it for *****.

Jerome: can withCredentials() be used in the script of a job parameter of type 'Active Choice Reactive Parameter'?

Gajanan: there is a job parameter type 'List Subversion tags (and more)'.

May be this satifies your needs. You will have to setup a credential (name+password) in the Jenkins credentials store. Then you can pass the ID of that credential to the job parameter, so that the parameter will be able to access your SVN.
