how to see the configuration changes in jenkins for a particular job

Question

I have a Jenkins job which was failing due to artifact issue :

Internal error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Error occurred while publishing artifact to Artifactory:

My onsite lead has resolved the issue but she did not told me the steps/changes .

So my concern is , chow can I see the changes she made to the job.

Answer 1

Most of the CI tools have this option to see the changes. Jenkins too has this support.

You can install the plugin Job Configuration History Plugin , so that for every change, you can have a track.

Answer 2

Add " Job Configuration History Plugin " for tracking the changes done in configuration. Once added it will appear on left side, please refer below image.

Link to Plugin : https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/JobConfigHistory+Plugin

Also you can revert back to old configuration using this same Plugin.
