Title: Message Title

James Hogarth created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-50022 Run parameter behaves differently between input step and job parameter Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: pipeline-input-step-plugin, workflow-cps-plugin Created: 2018-03-08 15:46 Labels: user-experience Priority: Minor Reporter: James Hogarth When -JENKINS-27295- was implemented there was a specific serialisation check in place that blocked RunParamaterValue from adding to the params array that provides access to the real object, rather than a string representation of it. On some recent testing if an input step is used to request a build be selected:   wah = input message: '', parameters: [run(description: '', filter: 'SUCCESSFUL', name: '', projectName: 'cme/example_02_artefact/master')] Then the object returned is the Run object that you can then do getDisplayName or getDescription on ...   If instead of an input step a build parameter is used:  properties([parameters([run(description: 'Select the version of the artifact to deploy', filter: 'SUCCESSFUL', name: 'deploy_artifact', projectName: 'cme/example_02_artefact/master')])]) Then the variable (direct or through env.foo) is just the $JOB_URL of the build selected as a string, and there's no Run object on params to access more detail about that build.   These should be made consistent so that either the input step only returns the string job_url to match the build params, or the Run object itself should be accessible when using a build parameter ... naturally I'd prefer the latter as it's way more flexible.   Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.3.0#73011-sha1:3c73d0e) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
