Maybe you should look at https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.bamboo.plugins.bamboo-variable-inject-plugin/server/overview which handles this problem elegantly and you can limit the scope of visible change just for the scope of the job execution.

Hello,

This is what you cannot do:

# in a Script task
${bamboo.myGlobalVariable} = 'new value'
${bamboo.myPlanVariable} = 'new value'

This is what you can do:

• Running a plan build manually, by running a customised build

• running a cURL command to run a particular build overwriting a Global/Plan variable

  curl -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X POST -d 'bamboo.yourVariable=newValue' 'http://localhost:8085/rest/api/latest/queue/PROJ-PLAN'

  The above will trigger a build 'PROJ-PLAN' and will overwrite the variable 'yourVariable' with 'newValue'.

• Injecting Bamboo Variables

Yes it is possible but IMO you should not do it. This can easily lead to chaos in your build configuration.
