Retrieve repository smart value by Jira automation

Question

Hi,

I am using Jira and Bitbucket cloud.

When I am running the pipeline (Test, Staging, Production), I would like to use the Jira automation and get the repository name, the build number, etc.

Which smat values should I use in order to get these values?

{{deployment.name}} - returns the build number

????? - for repository

Thanks, Yehuda

Hi @Yehuda Dembsky

The {{branch}} smart value is only available with the branch-related rule triggers.

When other triggers are used, workarounds are required, such a calling the build-tool's REST API endpoints using the Send Web Request action to access other information.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hey @Yehuda Dembsky ,

I would recommend checking official docs related to this: Automation smart values - development

I know you can get repository names from branches but I didn't test these from deployments but I believe it's a similar thing.

Cheers,
Tobi
