Global EnvironmentVariableNodeProperty does not show up in Pipeline unless in a node {...} block

XMLWordPrintable

      If you have a global environment variable set (let's say SOME_VAR="hi" for this example) in the Jenkins global configuration, that variable will not be in the Pipeline environment until you enter a node block, albeit any node block. So, for example,

      echo "SOME_VAR outside is ${env.SOME_VAR}"
node {
  echo "SOME_VAR inside is ${env.SOME_VAR}"
}

      will output

      SOME_VAR outside is null
SOME_VAR inside is hi

      So I think WorkflowRun needs to include Jenkins.getInstance().getGlobalNodeProperties() when creating its initial environment.
