Bamboo 3.4 : Working with Jobs

About Jobs

A Job is a single build unit within a Plan. One or more Jobs can be organised into one or more Stages. A Job is made up of one or more Tasks. A Job defines:

  • what gets built (i.e. the source code repository) — this can be a custom, Job-specific source repository or the 'default source repository' of the Plan that contains this Job;
  • which agent capabilities are required for the build (based on Job-specific requirements and requirements of the Job's Tasks);
  • what Tasks make up the Job and the order in which they are executed;
  • what artifacts the Job's build will produce;
  • any labels with which the build result or build artifacts will be tagged;

Each new Plan created in Bamboo contains at least one Job known as the 'Default Job'.

Projects and plans can only be configured by Bamboo administrators (see Creating a Plan).
