Request:

• Add a folder configuration setting for defining a pattern (regular expression) that is allowed when naming a New Item in that particular folder.

Use case:

• Folder name: team-a
• Role patterns:
  • team-a-folder = team-a
  • team-a-projects = team-a/team-a.*
• Need to enforce New Item (for example, Pipeline Project) naming requirement to begin with "team-a".

Support issue caused by the absence of this feature:

• Teams are able to create a New Item (for example, a Pipeline Project) that does not match the role pattern, and then the item is not visible to the team. This generates a support ticket to the Jenkins Administrators.

Environment details:

• We are assigning role patterns for different team LDAP groups to have access to different Folders in Jenkins. Role-based Authorization Strategy version 2.4.0.
• Name Pattern is only currently available for the global configuration under: Restrict project naming - Naming Strategy - Strategy - Pattern (screen shot attached)
• Therefore, currently, naming conventions cannot be set specific to different team folders.
