How to link 2 jobs in Jenkins

Link

How to create linking between different jobs or projects in Jenkins. For our learning purposes, we have created two small jobs named ‘Job 01’ and ‘Job 02’ in Jenkins Jobsserver:

for AIQ Workflows

LinkIn Jenkinsorder jobsto this, let’s go to job 02 and select configure from dropdown:

Now go to ‘Build triggers’ and select ‘Build after other projects are built’. Under ‘Projects to Watch’ to select ‘job 01’:

Let’s select ‘Trigger only if build is stable’ so that ‘Job 02’ is executed only when an‘Job AIQ01’ workflowis requiressuccessfully acompleted. controlledAfter sequence,this, suchselect as build, deploy, test execution,save and reportapply. collection.

  • Use explicit parameters between jobs instead of hidden environment assumptions.
  • Fail fastNow when an upstream job fails or produces invalid artifacts.
  • Recordyou build URLs‘Job 01’ and AIQ execution IDs for traceability.
  • Avoid passing secrets through plain-text parameters or logs.

  3. Run
    a validation chain in a non-production environment.
  4. Review logs and AIQ output before using the chain for scheduled runs.
