Sverre, can you elabore a bit more on how you did this?

So, I am automating the creation and working of Multibranch Pipeline. I am 
able to create jobs through Job DSL and it works fine.
But I have some variables(or parameters) that I want to pass to the 
individual branches (and I want it to be automated on job creation). If I 
put it in the Jenkinsfile, it won't be scalable.

I do it for regular pipeline jobs by using the EnvInject plugin, can't use 
that here though.
Do you have any solutions for this?
