Hi Victor, Thanks for the tip.
My issue is that the step does not return a map or any value. I am referring to the "step" metastep. Unlike the "checkout" metastep that returns a map (see https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-26100), step does not return a value. For instance, this is not possible or even it is possible, I don't know how I can send back the data from MyStepClass def vars = step ([$class: "MyStepClass"...] But the following is possible because the checkout metastep can get back a map if MySCMClass overrides #buildEnvironment def vars = checkout ([$class: "MySCMClass"...] I am trying to figure out if I can make "MyStepClass" return a map somehow. The workaround is to contribute an action that in turn exports the name-value pairs to the build environment. I can then access it in the script using the env object.
