copy artifacts - pick from two upstream jobs

[Chris Withers]

Hi All,

I have two upstream jobs which can trigger a particular build job.
I want that build job to copy artifacts from the build job that
triggered it to run, which could be either of the two; they both produce
the same artifacts, just by different means.

How can I achieve that?

cheers,

Chris

Hi Chris,

You can use the "Upstream build that triggered this job"-functionality of the Copy-Artifacts-Plugin.
Unfortunately you still need to specify the name of the triggering job. I will try to fix this in an upcoming version.
Until then you need to specify two "Copy artifacts from another project" build steps (one for each triggering project) and mark them as optional.

Hth,

Fred

That would be great :-)

This works just fine!

Where is that "Upstream build that triggered this job"-functionality of the Copy-Artifacts-Plugin  ?
