How to get the list of all bamboo variables configured?

[Subin Shrestha]

i want the consolidated list of all the variables set in different build plans and their deployment environments. is there any way to get such list?

You can get all the variables for a specific build plan using the REST API:

• https://docs.atlassian.com/atlassian-bamboo/REST/6.3.2/#d2e2330
• GET http://bamboo-url/rest/api/latest/plan/PLAN-KEY?expand=variableContext

All plans can also be retrieved via this API and which you can then iterate over and perform the above call:

• https://docs.atlassian.com/atlassian-bamboo/REST/6.3.2/#d2e2321
• GET http://bamboo-url/rest/api/latest/plan

This doesn't help for Deployment Environments or Global Variables though as there's no public API for this. 

If you have access to your Bamboo database, it's probably easier to just use these SQL queries instead:

--- Global Variables
SELECT variable_key, variable_value, variable_type 
FROM VARIABLE_DEFINITION WHERE VARIABLE_TYPE = 'GLOBAL'
 
--- Plan Variables
SELECT variable_key, variable_value, variable_type, full_key as PlanKey 
FROM VARIABLE_DEFINITION VD
 JOIN BUILD B ON VD.PLAN_ID = B.BUILD_ID
WHERE VARIABLE_TYPE = 'PLAN'

--- Deployment Environment Variables 
SELECT variable_key, variable_value, variable_type, DP.name as DeploymentProject, DE.name as DeploymentEnvironment, plan_key as SourceBuildPlan 
FROM VARIABLE_DEFINITION VD
 JOIN DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT DE ON VD.ENVIRONMENT_ID = DE.ENVIRONMENT_ID
 JOIN DEPLOYMENT_PROJECT DP ON DE.PACKAGE_DEFINITION_ID = DP.DEPLOYMENT_PROJECT_ID
WHERE VARIABLE_TYPE = 'ENVIRONMENT'

Note that any variable with "password" or "secret" in the key will be encrypted and unreadable in the data. 

Hope this helps. :)
