I want to use the Slack plugin in Jenkins to ping notifications to a Slack channel.
Jenkins says success when I test the connection, and I saw that connect was successful.
And after that, I need to add to Jenkins job configurations and add a post-build action on each job that you wish to ping the slack channel.
But I can't find post-build action in Job's configure.
Jenkins has version 2.121.3.
What kind of job configuration are you using ? Freestyle ? Multibranch ? Pipeline ? It's likely that the post-build actions will not appear for every kind of Jenkins job/project.
If you create a new job (New Item > Freestyle project), you should see the option at the end.

I am new to Jenkins. I have development code repository at bitbucket and another test script code repository at bitbucket. Now I have setup a Jenkins job by linking test code repository. Is there any way to trigger a build when code is pushed in develop repo?
I tried many times by pushing change in develop repo, but it does not triggers the jenkins job.
You can configure the Jenkins trigger as an SCM poll.
You will have to enter a cron expression for the polling time period, like:
*/5 * * * *
This means polling from 5 to 5 minutes. If any change is detected, then the build is triggered.
You can add the BitBucket Plugin to your Jenkins instance. It will allow you to configure a webhook in BitBucket that will then trigger any Jenkins job listening for that webhook. The plugin's page has a detailed breakdown, but the basics are;
In your repo in BitBucket, create a new Webhook using your Jenkins' url. I believe the url is generally http://[your jenkins url]/bitbucket-hook/
Make the trigger a repo push.
In your Jenkins job, check the box "Build when a change is pushed to BitBucket" under the Build Triggers section.
Now any time you commit to the repo you created the Webhook on, that Jenkins job will be run.
You can also limit what branches trigger commits by parameterizing your Jenkins build to ignore certain branches / keywords / etc if that's something you need for your specific project.
You can use webhooks to trigger build automatically. There are few options how to use it. See the following articles: this, this and this.
I configured webhooks in my github repository with events "Send me everything.". If i create any new branch in repository, github is delivering the webhooks perfectly, but build is not triggered in jeknins job .
Configured jenkins multibranch pipeline job with this repository, but i am unable to find options like "GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling" and "GitHub Pull Request Builder" like in freestyle/maven jobs. do i need to install any plugins? any help appreciated.
attaching screenshot of my job's configuration.
I went through similar queries in stackoverflow, but i didn't find any clue. all answers are based on freestyle/maven jobs.
Ensure your Jenkinsfile contains a check for "GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling". This can be done by declaring the following in your Jenkinsfile:
pipeline {
triggers {
githubPush()
}
}
Link to documentation:
https://jenkinsci.github.io/job-dsl-plugin/#method/javaposse.jobdsl.dsl.helpers.triggers.TriggerContext.githubPush
You just have to add the below Url :
http://yourjenkins/project/*yourprojectname* on "Add Webhook" in git service provider.
No configuration required in Jenkins multibranch job it will automatically start the branch indexing.
In freestyle job there is an option named "GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling" on stage Build Trigger.
screen capture here:
.
Together with webhook in gitlab config "http://myjenkins/gitlab/notify_commit" it works fine, meaning that the build will be triggered automatically when something is pushed to the repository.
But why in Multibranch Pipeline there is only one option named "Periodically if not otherwise run"? Is there some plug-in not installed? How to trigger Multibranch Pipeline build with github webhook like freestyle job
This page described how to configure pipeline-as-code on multibranch workflow in jenkins.
This is the quote from the description inside:
The Workflow Multibranch feature (provided by the workflow plugin) provides the following key abilities:
Automatic Workflow (job) creation in Jenkins per new branch in the
repo (assuming webhooks are registered from GH to Jenkins).
Build specific to that child-branch and its unique scm change and build history.
Automatic job pruning/deletion for branches deleted from the repository, according to the settings.
Flexibility to individually configure branch properties, by overriding the parent properties, if required.
To configure the webhooks, refer to this page.
To check if the events notify your jenkins you can use this feature below:
PS: Watch the URL target that you configured, if you miss the "/" at the end of url it might not be able to reach the jenkins.
I hope this helps!
From Jenkins plugin (ie. Delivery Pipeline, Parameterized Trigger), we could setup a pipeline which contains multiple jobs in sequence, for instance: Build -> Unit Test -> Deploy To DEV.
Now, for each pipeline, we want to stop after "Unit Test" because we need to wait for someone to approve the deployment before it can go on (We use JIRA as the tracking system for this).
Say when, someone approves the deployment ticket in JIRA, we already setup a post action to fire and trigger a job in Jenkins, say "Deploy To Dev" in this case. However, this job will run independently outside the pipeline.
Is there a way, we can trigger the down stream job from script within an instance of a pipeline so it can carry over all the parameters from upstream and shown as part of the pipeline?
Thx
I have successfully setup a webhook trigger in bitbucket for a Jenkins freestyle project, for test purposes.
Unfortunately my Jenkins project is using the Pipeline format, and I am unable to get Bitbucket to trigger that kind of project; the problem seems to be that there is no Jenkins project registered to pull from the repo that the Bitbucket webhook is coming from, and Jenkins replies with:
Error: Jenkins response: No git jobs using repository: ssh://git#myhost:7999/xxx/testing-jenkins.git and branches: master No Git consumers using SCM API plugin for: ssh://git#myhost:7999/xxx/testing-jenkins.git
The pipeline project is setup in a way that the Jenkinsfile is to be found in the given repository (ssh://git#myhost:7999/xxx/testing-jenkins.git), by using the "Pipeline script from SCM" option.
Therefore there is actually a kind of "git consumer" for the Pipeline, but this does not seem to be taken into account by Jenkins, probably because this is not a real project source, but a pipeline source.
Are there any examples of integration of Bitbucket and Jenkins Pipeline projects? I have been unable to find any.
If your are looking for a full Bitbucket and Jenkins Pipeline, I highly recommend to use the Bitbucket Branch Source Plugin. The plugin will discover all Branches and Pull Requests and build all who have a JenkinsFile in the root of repo.
You can also use create a project as Bitbucket Team, who will scan all repo of your organization:
See the official doc of CloudBees
I was struggling with the same problem. Following are the key points I followed.
In Jenkins pipeline job,
Under Build Triggers, check 'Trigger builds remotely (e.g., from scripts)' and fill in the 'Authentication Token' with some random and unique token.
In BitBucket repository,
Go to Settings > Services
Select 'Jenkins' from the drop down and 'Add service'.
Check 'Csrf Enabled'
Endpoint : http://username:apitoken#yourjenkinsurl.com/
You can find username and apitoken at Jenkins home > People
Select the user and click on configure. Under 'API Token' click on the 'Show API Token' button and you see the username and apitoken
Module name : This is optional. It can be any particular file or folder which is to be watched.
Project name : The project name in Jenkins.
If the job is in some folder structure, say I have 'MyTestFolder/MyTestPipelineJob', Project name to be mentioned is 'MyTestFolder/job/MyTestPipelineJob'
Token : 'Authentication Token' created in Jenkins job.
You are ready to go!!
I referred http://felixleong.com/blog/2012/02/hooking-bitbucket-up-with-jenkins/ and some of my instincts. :)
A simple solution is to use Generic Webhook Trigger Plugin in Jenkins.
You would need to
Enable it in a free style or pipeline job.
Configure a token string
Construct JSONPath:s to gather whatever you need from the Bitbucket Webhook.
Add the plugin endpoint in Bitbucket. JENKINS_URL/generic-webhook-trigger/invoke?token=whatever_you_picked
The plugin will give you clear feedback when it is invoked so that troubleshooting is made easy.
It is up to you to pick whatever values you need from the webhook in order to clone the correct repository or whatever it is you want to do when the it is invoked.
I have this same issue. My workaround was just to create a freestyle project that can be triggered by the WebHook, and have the the Pipeline triggered by that project's completion.
In the mean time, here's the Jenkins bug you can watch for a fix:
https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-38447
Spend hours figuring out how to do this in 2017.10
Like #JPLemelin described, new a Jenkins item using a Bitbucket Team/project
ref to the doc: https://support.cloudbees.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000051132-How-to-Trigger-Multibranch-Jobs-from-BitBucket-Cloud- , install the plugin: The BitBucket Branch Source plugin.
go to bitbucket, and add webhook: ${your-jenkins-url}/bitbucket-scmsource-hook/notify
after these 3 steps, I finally make the pipeline jobs run after new commit into bitbucket
I had the same exact issue...
The cause was using */master for branch specifier. I needed to spell it out: origin/master (no wildcards).
It works well now.
I was finally able to make this work with Jenkinsfile in Multi Branch Pipeline:
In Bitbucket i created a webhook with my Jenkins-URL, my clone-URL and in the webhook i put the following URL (exact the url in the project of Jenkins):
http://<jenkins>/git/notifyCommit?url=http://<user>#<bitbucket>/scm/<project>/<repo>.git
When i test the trigger the result is the following:
No git jobs using repository: http://<user>#<bitbucket>/scm/<project>/<repo>.git and branches:
Scheduled indexing of <repo>
So it didn't trigger any jobs, but it triggered the multi branch scanning, so my changed branches are build.
