Blue Ocean missing branch/commit info

Question

I have a Pipeline job that has a parameter for the BRANCH_NAME to specify which branch to build from my bitbucket repo. I use this in the Branch Specifier as ${BRANCH_NAME} in the pipeline definition (Pipeline script from SCM).

The builds run fine, except that in the Blue Ocean UI it doesn't list the branch or commit info. Any way I can get this to appear?

If you want to have the information of Branch and Commit in the pipeline job of Blue Ocean UI, you will need the Pipeline: Multibranch plugin. Using the Multibranch pipeline plugin will create jobs for each branch in that repository that contains a jenkinsfile. When it does that it will get the information from which branch it is coming, and show it in the Blue Ocean UI. And if there is a commit related to that build, it will show the commit hash.

For more information on the Pipeline: Multibranch plugin, check out the following link.

This is how I was able to get and show the Branch/Commit information in Blue Ocean UI.

While I know this is correct, I can't help but think it should be possible to get those fields to populate with a single pipeline. – Submersed
