You can specify which people will receive notifications about build results for a particular plan, and under what circumstances, i.e.:

  • Send notifications for all builds — this option is recommended for any plans for which it is critical that people are always informed about the latest build activity.
    OR
  • Only send notifications for failed builds (and associated fixed builds) — this is recommended if you are concerned about sending people too many notifications.

You can specify different recipients and different circumstances for each plan. Note also that recipients need not be people with Bamboo user accounts.

Before you begin

You need to configure Bamboo's system email and/or instant messaging capabilities before any plans can send notifications.


To enable notifications for a plan,

  1. Click 'Home' to go to the Dashboard.
  2. Click the 'All Plans' tab.
  3. Locate the plan in the list and click this icon:
  4. The 'Configuration' tab will be displayed. Click the 'Post Actions' tab.
  5. Choose 'When to send notifications': either 'Only send notifications for failed builds and associated fixed'; or 'All builds'. Most organisations start with the 'All builds' option, then change it later as they get more confidence in the continuous build process.
    1. To send email notifications:
      - Select the 'Send an email' check-box.
      - This will display the 'Email Recipients' field. Type the appropriate email addresses, separated by commas.
    2. To send IM notifications:
      - Select the 'Send a message to an IM server' check-box. This will display two 'Message Recipients' fields.
      - 'Message Recipients (groups)' — Select the appropriate Bamboo groups from the drop-down list.
      - 'Message Recipients' field — Type the appropriate IM addresses. Note that if you specify a broadcast address (eg. 'project-x@broadcast.chat.mycompany.com'), Bamboo will not know the context of related IM responses.
      (info) If you specify groups, IM messages will be sent to the IM address of each user in the group. Note that each user can edit their own IM address in their User Profile.
  6. Click the 'Save' button.
