build pipeline plugin should be able to chain jobs from external jenkins

XMLWordPrintable

      My build, deploy and test jobs are in a jenkins environment where I don't have access to install plugins. I have my own jenkins instance where I have build pipeline plugin installed. But it looks like build pipeline currently as per design can only chain jobs from the same instance and not from an external jenkins. Is it possible for build pipeline plugin to link jobs from an external jenkins? Is there an alternative? Thanks!

          There isn't a way to do this in the pipeline, and it's a bit out of scope of the responsibility of the pipeline in my opinion.

          You could have one job trigger another build using the 'trigger builds remotely' trigger. That's probably insufficient, though.

          The problem you're trying to address is that you can't install the plugin in the place that you need to. The plugin can't solve that for you, unfortunately.
