Bamboo parent build passing variables to dependent child?

[Deleted user]

Are there any other dependency variables besides depth and parent key?  I'm very interested in passing credentials in build variables to a child build.

thanks,

Just googling for this also, keen to hear the response.

Bamboo at this moment doesn't offer this feature. 

I simulated it by using Bamboo's rest API and fire a child build and passing parameters to it. Put a curl command in a task in your parent plan to invoke the child plan:

curl -d "bamboo.Param1=P1&bamboo.Param2=P2" -X POST --user userid:password "https://{SERVER_NAME}/rest/api/latest/queue/{PROJECT_NAME}-{PLAN_NAME}?executeAllStages=true"

The only disadvantage is the REST call just put it inside the queue and doesn't wait for execution of child task. So if child plan fails it won't notify parent plan.
