      I have a job to deploy arbitrary builds

      back in Jenkins 2.249.3, i was able to do the following in declarative:

      pipeline {
      	parameters {
      		choice(name: 'JOB', choices: ["Job A", "Job B"], description: 'The Job from which to take the installation files')
      		buildSelector(name: 'RUN', description: 'Which build to use from Job')
      	}
      	agent any
      	stages {
      		stage('download artifacts')
      		{
      			steps {
      				script {
      					currentBuild.setDescription("using artifacts from $JOB #$params.RUN")
      				}
      				copyArtifacts(projectName: env.JOB, selector: buildParameter(params.RUN))
      			}
      		}
      		stage('deploy')
      		{
      			steps {
      			    sh 'true'
      			}
      		}
      	}
      }
      

       

      By that, the build description was set to e.g. "using artifacts from Job A # 42"

      after upgrading to Jenkins 2.263.1 while keeping copyartifacts 1.43, copyArtifatcs still works, but $params.RUN does not contain the run number anymore, it's jsut empty.

      upgrading to copyartifacts 1.45.3 did not resolve the issue.
