1.2 Creating a Plan

Only people with the 'Create' global permission can create a new build plan.

There are two ways of creating a new plan:

To create a new plan,

Click the 'Create Plan' link in the top navigation bar.
The 'Create a new plan' wizard will appear (see screenshot below). Click the nine sub-tabs to edit the following:
- '1. Plan Details'
- '2. Source Repository''
- '3. Builder Configuration'
- '4. Capability Requirements'
- '5. Build Artifacts' (optional; can be completed now or later)
- '6. Build Notifications' (optional; can be completed now or later)
- '7. Post Actions' (optional; can be completed now or later)
- '8. Permissions' (optional; can be completed now or later)
When you return to the Dashboard, your new plan (and new project, if applicable) will be displayed in the 'All Projects' list.

To copy an existing plan,

Click the 'Create Plan' link in the top navigation bar.
On the 'Plan Details' screen, select the check-box 'Clone an existing build plan?'
A list called 'Plan to clone' will be displayed, containing all existing plans for which you have the 'Clone' and/or 'Admin' plan permission. Select the plan you wish to copy.
Enter the required information in the screens listed above. On screens 2-8, appropriate information will be copied from the plan you selected; but you will need to complete all fields on screen 1.
