Installing and Configuring the Connector

Before reading the information below, please make sure that you have installed the Atlassian IntelliJ Connector, as described in the Installation Guide, and defined at least one Bamboo server, as described in the Configuration Guide.

Icon and Popup showing Bamboo Status

After you have defined the Bamboo servers and plans to monitor, the Bamboo icon in the status bar shows the summary status of builds. If at least one build is currently failing, the icon is red, otherwise it is green.

The screenshot above shows a red Bamboo status icon in the status bar, with tooltip 'Some builds failed. Click to see details.'

If the Bamboo tab is not already open, you can click the status icon to open the Bamboo tab in the connector window, where detailed information is shown. See below.

In addition, when the summary status changes (e.g. when a build fails), a popup window appears to warn you of the problem. You can configure the behaviour of the popup, as described in the Configuration Guide.

  • Click the Bamboo status icon in the IDEA status bar. The icon may be red or green.

  • Or:
    • Click the Atlassian Connector control button in the IDEA side bar:


    • Then select the Bamboo tab in the connector window toolbar:

Contents of the Bamboo Tab in the Connector Window

The Bamboo tab of the connector window shows information about all plans on all servers defined in the connector configuration panel.

The set of information is different for Bamboo 1.x and Bamboo 2.x servers. Bamboo 2.x servers can return more detailed information than Bamboo 1.x.

You can perform the following functions for each line in the list:

  • Double-click a line to open the selected plan in a new browser window.
  • Right-click a line to show a popup context menu (also shown in the screenshot above) with actions that can be performed for a Bamboo plan. The available actions depend on the version of Bamboo running on your server.
