      The release notes for 1.10 github plugin mention that it now supports variable substitution.

      But that seems not to work, at least for the value of "JOB_NAME"

      We name our Jenkins projects based on the github project name, and that allows us to setup a template with the following url for the project on github:

      https://github.com/mycompany/$JOB_NAME/

      But, when you click on the GitHub link in the left hand notification, the link is still to /$JOB_NAME/ – not the actual substituted name of the job.

          Have you tried

           ${JOB_NAME}

          ?

          This var substitution works only in some context with environment. This context is usually build. So when there is no any context, variable substitution can't work. I can think about replacing some of variables, but it will be not all of defined in build scope

          I reopen this issue because i have a similar problem with GitHub plugin 1.25.1 / Jenkins 2.32.1
          I create a Jenkins variable environment on System configuration screen:
          GITHUB_BASE_URL = https://mygihubentrepriseurl.com

          On Project Url field in my job i enter this value :
          ${GITHUB_BASE_URL}/MyOrg/MyProject

          Result : On the left pane of job page the GitHub button points to the job page URL instead of pointing to GitHub URL i mentionned on the Project URL field.

          What's wrong?
