how to trigger the imported pipeline with custom variable export?

[A Sai Shree Anjan]

Actual import pipeline in main project from shared pipeline.

pipelines:

custom:

import-pipeline:

import: bitbucket-shared-pipelines:main:set-environment-variables

is there a way to trigger the imported pipeline based on branches like dev, qa along with assigning the custom variables during the build time.

Hello @A Sai Shree Anjan ,

and welcome to the Community!

My understanding is that you are importing a shared pipelines as a custom pipelines, and would like to have the ability to provide the value of the custom variables in the UI when triggering that pipeline. If that is the case, I'm afraid it's not yet possible, as this is currently a limitation on custom shared pipelines as per Share pipelines configuration documentation :

Note: There is a known limitation with using Variables in Custom Pipelines that utilize a shared Pipeline Configuration. If a repository imports a shared Pipeline Configuration and uses it as part of a Custom Pipeline, variable values specified at runtime via the UI will not pass to the pipeline execution. Instead, the default values specified in the exported Pipeline configuration will be used instead.

We do have an enhancement request with our engineering team to include that functionality (BCLOUD-22869). We encourage you to add your vote there to increase the visibility of that feature and to help our product team to understand the interest. You also have the option to mark yourself as a watcher to be notified of any future updates.

Thank you, @A Sai Shree Anjan !

Hi @A Sai Shree Anjan

Not sure if I understood you question correctly, but we do support a more flexible way of triggering pipelines via our addon which might be helpful to your question.

Along with the import I want to export few variables, is it possible ?
