When configuring a plan, you may want to specify variables to be used in the build process. For details on how variables are used, see Using Global, Plan or Build-specific Variables.
Global variables are one type of variable that is available to you. Global variables are defined across your entire Bamboo instance, and have the same value for every plan that is built by Bamboo. If you want to define a variable for a specific Plan rather than across all Plans, define a Plan variable as described in Defining Plan Variables.
Global variables can be accessed by using ${bamboo.globalVarName}. Global variables can also be overridden at runtime when running a manual build. For more information, see Triggering a Plan Build Manually.
On this page:
Defining a Global Variable
To access the Global Variables page:
- Click the 'Administration' link in the top navigation bar.
