Documentation for Bamboo 4.0.x. Documentation for earlier versions of Bamboo is available too.

This page describes how to create a Bamboo job in a stage.

  • You can either create a new job, or clone an existing job.
  • You must have the Admin or Create Plan global permission to create jobs.
  • Creating a new job allows you to define a single unit of execution within a stage, including what gets built and what builder to use.

To create a new job:

  1. Click Dashboard and then the All Plans tab.
  2. Click the name of the plan in the list.
  3. Choose Actions > Configure Plan.
  4. Click Configuration under 'Stages & Jobs' in the left panel.
  5. Click Create Job in the stage where you want the new job.
  6. Click either Create a New Job or Clone an Existing Job.
  7. If cloning a job, complete the 'Job to clone from' section:
    • Plan to clone from — Select the plan containing the job you wish to clone. Plans are grouped by project in the list.
      (info) Only plans for which you have the 'Clone' and/or 'Admin' plan permission are shown.
    • Job to clone — Select the job you wish to clone from your selected plan. Jobs are grouped by stage in the list.
  8. Complete the 'Job Details' section.
  9. Select Yes please! to enable this job, if required. Enabling the job instructs Bamboo to execute the job whenever the job's plan is built. 
  10. Click Create Job.

If you wish to configure tasks for the job, such as configuring a Repository Checkout, please refer to Editing a job.
