Unfortunately deployment environments can still not be created or edited via the REST API. Please watch and vote on the following issue to raise Atlassian's priority regarding this notable and long standing gap (the current low vote count is a bit misleading, insofar there have been related issues before that got resolved…

Can you elaborate what you mean with 'automation tool'? For example, what do you want to automate, Bamboo itself, other Atlassian apps, or external systems? And what kind of automation tooling do you have in mind?

I guess this is the background for your question, so just in case: Atlassian maintains a brief Accessibility hub that also links to the resp. product VPAT documents, but Bamboo is missing there indeed. Also, it's worth noting that all other documents have seemingly not seen notable updates since their resp. initial…

This seems to be a perfect use case for Bamboo Specs, which allow you to specify your configuration as code (and optionally manage it as repository-stored Bamboo Specs), either in Java, or for a subset of Bamboo features also in YAML - please refer to the Bamboo Specs Reference for examples of both approaches.…

Just to state/clarify the obvious, the main purpose of using Bamboo's linked repositories rather than configuring one per plan/project is to separate repository changes from plans/projects that are consuming them: Linked repositories are available globally to all plans and jobs configured on the Bamboo server. Doing this…

Happy first Anniversary Atlassian Community, I couldn't summarize the ride anywhere close as good as @Thomas Schlegel, thanks for your excellent retrospective Thomas! I can share my favorite Atlassian Community memory though, which just got a nice refresh thanks to @Daniel Eads {unmonitored account}Networking, learning,…

This is not yet available as a built-in Jira Service Desk feature, please watch and vote for the following issue to further increase Atlassian's awareness of this already highly voted feature request: * Email domain organization association (JSDSERVER-4519) That being said, Code Barrel's excellent Automation Automation for…

You cannot POST data to the Amazon SNS or Amazon SQS APIs without signing the request with AWS credentials. Using the built-in WebHook features of either Bitbucket Cloud or Server as is is therefore not possible. Possible workaround You could use Amazon API Gateway to implement an endpoint that will allow POST requests…

While Support for non-Bitbucket Server repos for Bamboo Specs (Java and YAML) (BAM-18970) is now available as of Bamboo 6.5, this only includes "Git, Bitbucket Cloud, Github and Subversion repositories", whereas Mercurial didn't make the cut because "according to [Atlassian's] analytics Mercurial repositories usage is…

Thanks @robhit - the link to Branch builds do not honor Linked Repos includes/excludes on branch creation (BAM-15899) is defunct, so here it is again ;)

Similar to Nic I'm primarily using the emails as a feed, and I agree that the setup looks good for new users, which is the important default case to retain usability and engagement - those few that want more can always opt-in later. The resulting volume combined with the (apparent) lack of threading subverts prioritization…

Just using a PowerShell based Script task as suggested by @Gabriel Ribeiro (+1) certainly provides the most flexibility in terms of custom solutions and should also allow you to work around eventual Windows related limitations with the built-in Bamboo Docker support, which seem to be the initial context of your question,…

Bitbucket Server has no built-in push support. That being said, you could leverage the popular Repository Mirror Plugin for Bitbucket app to automatically push the code to an externally hosted mirror so that the externally hosted Bamboo instance can pull the code from there in turn. Obvious mirror targets would be…

@Edward Snowden - it is highly recommended to ask a separate question for anything that's not directly related to your first one, because this will provide a considerably higher chance of attracting a competent answer and also helps a lot to keep this community well organized and easily searchable (for example, I've just…

Besides the built-in Bamboo integration with Slack via XMPP mentioned by @robhit already (+1), you might also be interested in the free Slack Notifications for Bamboo app that seems to get the job done for a lot of users (judging by the installation count, I'm not using it myself).

Unfortunately there is no built-in notification for this (IMHO) highly useful event, despite being an obvious candidate to implement approval workflows and similar scenarios. And surprisingly the resp. issue Manual stage reached notification (BAM-14089) hasn't attracted many votes either so far, but regardless I recommend…

@Jeffrey Bistrong - not 100% positive on this right now, but IIRC you can indeed just use the Confluence Data Center on AWS quick start, configure the Auto Scaling group to only ever run a single node, and provide a Server rather than a Data Center license. * Please note that I might confuse this recollection with the…

@Rikin Patel - probably not, but to better isolate this, are you using Questions for Confluence Cloud or Questions for Confluence Server?

I see, being able to control the pipeline region would indeed be the least involved approach for this. Just in case you haven't considered it, one alternative/workaround might be the new DynamoDB Global Tables feature (aka managed Cross-Region Replication) that is generally available as of recently. Given your use case…

I'm not aware of a pipeline's AWS region being exposed in any way, or configurable even. What about going the other way round: Assuming you are hosting your assets in an S3 bucket or via API's served by other AWS services, you could use Amazon CloudFront to deliver your assets with low latency and high transfer speeds?

Regarding question 4, you might want to look into the following: * Official Jira status URL, see Document the /status URL for JIRA (JRASERVER-63928)* available as of 7.1.0 only, which is enough if you just need to cover versions not EOL yet * lacks documentation other than this issue * not 100% positive…

I'm not aware of an installation option with implicit approval, but in case your operational environment is sufficiently controlled to skip this security barrier, you can simply disable agent authentication entirely: * Click the icon in the Bamboo header and choose Agents. * Click the Disable remote agent…

Regarding the connection to analytics.s3.amazonaws.com, it is worth noting that I've been considering Atlassian's analytics approach for BTF systems remarkable transparent and customer friendly in the past. I've always been asked whether to enable/disable it at configuration time, and the analytics configuration page is…

While Grzegorz' answer is sound (+1) and will probably cover many use cases, you might also want to check out the (commercial) Groovy Tasks for Bamboo app which provides "Groovy, Gradle, Gradle Wrapper, Gant, and GINT tasks for Bamboo".

Great initiative! We (Utoolity) would love to add Crowd to the products supported by Identity Federation for AWS (currently available for Jira, Confluence and Bamboo, and soon for Bitbucket). In fact, we initially envisioned to first and primarily support Crowd for the very reasons you emphasized, especially to 'be the…

You can reference Bamboo variables to achieve that, i.e. something like the following should work conceptually: ${bamboo.dockerRepository}/${bamboo.imageName}:${bamboo.buildNumber} Please note that there used to be a few regressions with this in older Bamboo versions (e.g. BAM-15861 and BAM-18282), but I think the…

@Jeremy Roelfs - We have analyzed this oddity further and identified the syntax error in our documentation, namely the missing 'Env:' prefix before the environment variables. This means that the right hand side of your initial attempt combined with the left hand side of our example finally yields a working solution for…

Good to know that they are already aware of this regression, thanks!

Update Atlassian support has confirmed the regression in our case too and created the following bug to track it (i.e. 'Needs verification' is slightly misleading here and probably unintentional due to being investigated still): * Confluence for Questions Empty (CONFCLOUD-59114) I suggest you watch and vote for the issue to…

There's meanwhile a Bamboo Specs API docs hub outside of the Bamboo Specs product documentation, which provides entry points to the latest Bamboo Specs (Java) and Bamboo Specs (YAML) reference docs and thus the easiest way to check for a feature's availability in either one of those. That being said, the Bamboo Specs…
