Get username logged in Jenkins from Jenkins Workflow (Pipeline) Plugin
Did you try installing the Build User Vars plugin? If so, you should be able to run
node { wrap([$class: 'BuildUser']) { def user = env.BUILD_USER_ID }}or similar.
To make it work with Jenkins Pipeline:
Install user build vars plugin
Then run the following:
pipeline { agent any stages { stage('build user') { steps { wrap([$class: 'BuildUser']) { sh 'echo "${BUILD_USER}"' } } } }}
Here's a slightly shorter version that doesn't require the use of environment variables:
@NonCPSdef getBuildUser() { return currentBuild.rawBuild.getCause(Cause.UserIdCause).getUserId()}The use of rawBuild requires that it be in a @NonCPS block.
