Title: Message Title

Benjamin Muschko created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-59662 Pipeline input step should not render approval pop-up if logged-in user is not declared as submitter Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Components: core, pipeline Created: 2019-10-04 16:40 Priority: Minor Reporter: Benjamin Muschko The submitter parameter of the input step controls which user is allowed to submit a manual step. Let's say you have the following definition: ``` input(message: message, submitter: 'john,mary,jack') ``` If I am logged in as ben I can still click the "Proceed" button. The pipeline will then tell me that I am not allowed to approve the operation. From a user's perspective, this is misleading and confusing. The approval pop-up shouldn't even be rendered if I am not allowed to click it. In a declarative pipeline, I believe you can work around this by using the following code: ``` when { beforeAgent() } ``` There a two issues with this approach: 1. Defining a manual step that uses an agent will cause the executor to be blocked which you likely will never want to do. This is a related issue and should be addressed separately. 2. How do you achieve this in a scripted pipeline? As far as I can tell, there's no way to prevent the pop-up from being rendered.
