I have a problem with getting env
properties dynamically in Jenkins Scripted Pipeline. I have a String key in the pipeline. Let's call it key
.
The key
is obtained by concatenating two strings:
def key = env.BRANCH_NAME + ".HOST";
And then I wanna get another env
property by that key:
def remoteHost = env[key];
But it doesn't work for me.
Original problem.
I have three branches in my repository: dev
, testing
and staging
. Also I have three global properties: dev.HOST
, testing.HOST
, staging.HOST
. I want to write something like this:
timestamps {
node() {
String remoteHost;
stage('Defining a remote host') {
def key = env.BRANCH_NAME + ".HOST";
remoteHost = env[key];
echo "remote host:" + remoteHost;
}
}
But as I said env[key] not working there. And I get the next stack trace:

How could I get property right? Or how could I solve this problem?
Jenkins version: 2.249.2
Although this would work on plain Groovy, using the following syntax env[key]
is not working here because pipeline is running inside a sandbox, where this type of access is not allowed.
You have two options there:
1 - Using Groovy gstrings and change env[key]
to env."${key}"
completely avoiding the sandbox error.
2 - If you still prefer this way of access, whitelisting the method on Jenkins management section called 'In-process Script Approval'. After doing that and running pipeline again, you should not see the stacktrace anymore.
