Access to the list of people in group via Bamboo variable

[MS]

I would like to add a plan launch notification. The "notification" function only allows you to send notifications when the plan is completed. However, it can be set in plan to receive notification by a group.

I prepared a PowerShell script that will be called in the first Task in Stage. Is it possible to get a list of people from the bamboo group via bamboo variable? Something like $ {bamboo.group.mail_test}?

Hi @MS

Bamboo does not provide a way to gather this information via variables nor REST APIs. This restriction will probably be enforced due to GDPR compliance reasons.

I guess the options you have would be:

• Gather the user's email from LDAP via API and add it to a variable OR
• Create a file in your build pipeline with the list of user' s emails (gathered either from the Bamboo UI or another method). Using an inject variable task to create a variable with the content you need.

There is a feature request to add an email task in Bamboo:

• [BAM-17085] Send customized email via Bamboo Task

I hope that helps to clarify this scenario.
