Accessing arguments from webhook payloads

Your scripts can access the full trigger webhook payload that started the current pipeline run. They are located in the file under the /trigger-payload/payload.json path.

The option to use the TRIGGER_PAYLOAD environment variable is deprecated.

The following code snippet shows how to access the webhook trigger payload and provide or override a variable in the pipeline. It reads the author of the recent commit that triggered the pipeline and saves it for the toolchain to use later.

AUTHOR_EMAIL="$(jq '.head_commit.author.email' '/trigger-payload/payload.json')"

set_env author-email $AUTHOR_EMAIL

#
# later in a separate pipeline stage, you can access this
#
get_env author-email
