email-extension: using extended email template in a pipeline job by template name

[Mike MBS]

Hi,

I asked this question on StackOverflow – but seems there is a lack of engagement regarding Jenkins there..so I am asking here as well:

 

I've created a template named 'default_email_template' by going to Manage Jenkins -> Editable Email Notification Templates -> Add New Template.   I've also provided the content for default Recipients,  Subject and Body. I now would simply like to have my multiple pipeline job use that template as is. the following does not work:

Code:

def sendEmail() {

    emailext(

      '${SCRIPT, template="default_email_template"}',

      subject: "'Job ${env.JOB_NAME} [${env.BUILD_NUMBER}]'",

    )

}

 

Exception:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Expected named arguments but got [{subject='Job testJob [12]'}, ${SCRIPT, template="default_email_template"}]

What is the proper way to reference a template created by using this extension?  Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks much

I think you need to use:

body: '${SCRIPT, template="default_email_template"}'

Thanks. Yes that was it.  I was hoping I would be able to use the overall template I created such that i do not have to specify subject and recipients (since I already defined those in the template)
