unable to trigger bamboo plan from jira issues

Bamboo build trigger from Jira

Hi Team,

The requirement is to trigger a Bamboo build with any update in actions in JIRA(Ex: Issue Update or comment update)

 We have followed the approach below:

• Connected JIRA with Bamboo using a webhook.
• We are trying various webhook URL’s but the trigger of Bamboo build is not successful.
• we are using Jira version (v7.4.2#74004-sha1:586975d)  Bamboo version  6.2.3

we are facing below error in log file:

22018-03-26 11:52:29,765 httpclient-callbacks:thread-32 WARN anonymous [c.a.webhooks.plugin.PublishTaskFactoryImpl$PublishTaskImpl] Server error - 500 when posting to web hook at 'http://bamboo-host:8085/rest/api/latest/queue/JTST-JTST?&os_authType=basic&os_username=admin&os_password=admin&user_id=jchang&user_key=jchang'

 Kindly suggest if anyone has worked on similar approach.

Hi Lakshmi,

 I was able to trigger a build using the below curl command as explained in this page.

 curl -X POST http://host:port/rest/api/latest/queue/PLAN-KEY?os_authType=basic --user username:password

You might also use the action call (/api/rest/updateAndBuild.action?buildKey=) using the endpoint updateAndBuild.action to trigger a build. This checks whether there are changes in the repository associated with the planKey provided as parameter. Upon doing, Bamboo will:

• trigger a build against the buildKey provided
• will check if there are any other changes in the repository, including branches. If so, will trigger a build against branches as well.

This article explains how to trigger a build by adding this endpoint in a 'postCommitBuildTrigger.py'.

Let us know if that helped you.
