Keith Zantow added a comment - 2017-07-18 13:30 - edited I looked into this a bit last week & yesterday, but there seems to be a particular issue - in order to get an appropriate link, the RepositoryBrowser needs to provide it, but the API requires a ChangeSet object, for which no API exists to convert from a commit id . The only cases where this is a problem is when a user directly runs a branch and there are no changes from the last run (not replays - replay copies the ChangeSet s from the prior run). As I see it, there are 3 possible solutions: One solution is simply to not show the commit id at all, as according to Jenkins there are no "changes" for the run despite having an SCMRevisionAction . A second solution is to try to look back through all prior runs to find a ChangeSet that matches the commitId in the SCMRevisionAction , this has the potential to not find one and scan the entire history or some bounded subset. In PipelineRunImpl.java this might look something like: @Exported(name = "commitUrl" ) public String getCommitUrl() { String commitId = getCommitId(); if (commitId != null ) { Container<BlueChangeSetEntry> changeSets = getChangeSet(); int buildNumber = this .run.number; WorkflowJob job = this .run.getParent(); while (buildNumber > 0) { BlueChangeSetEntry entry = changeSets.get(commitId); if (entry != null ) { return entry.getUrl(); } buildNumber--; Run<?,?> run = job.getBuildByNumber(buildNumber); if (run == null ) { continue ; } changeSets = AbstractRunImpl.getBlueRun(run, parent).getChangeSet(); } } return null ; } Another solution, which is a bit hackish, we can manually construct a ChangeSet object. This is directly dependent on the RepositoryBrowser class, though and would require some specific type-checking for known repository browsers.
