extend build history in Dashboard view

XMLWordPrintable

      Build history in Dashboard view shows only the last 30 builds.

      Sometimes I needed to go back further in history and see the last 60, 80 or 100 in the build history. As we print also the branch name into the build info which then shows up in the build history I could immediately identify the job which concerned a certain branch that I have to analyze.

      As for now I have to open the console log and modify the build number which is part of the URL in order to identify the build that belongs to the branch I have to analyze.
      This is tedious.

      It would be nice if there was a way to configure this limit which is currently 30.

      Used Jenkins version: 2.164.3

          Workaround: Hover the build history, and buttons to paginate through the history will appear.

          I mean, the UX here is a bit subpar, e.g. it doesn't indicate what page you're on, and you can go "up" from the newest page to an empty one – all things potentially worthy a separate RFE – , but the feature at least exists

          danielbeck Correct, I just wasn't aware of it and my UX has considerably improved now.

          I also think it would be great to make the 30 last jobs configurable for folks that depend on the history a lot and therefore might need to see more jobs.
