Admin left company and we can't rename or delete boards from the workspace
Asked by Tania Casey:

Hi, our admin left the company over 12 months ago. We are not able to rename any boards or delete old boards we no longer require that were created by the admin that left our company.

body: If they used a company email address to create their Trello account, I think the easiest way is to re-enable (or ask your IT department to) that email address to then be able to log in and add a new admin. If not, contact <https://trello.com/contact> and they will help you

Can I create a rule to automate date shifting of all cards based on change on one card?
Asked by Jill Barton:

I have a board where Card A's due date determines the start date for all other cards on the board. If the due date of Card A shifts, I'd like to be able to automate the shift of the custom field Start Date on all other cards on the board by the same increment (i.e. Card A due date moves back one month - various other Start dates on all other cards shift by that same one month).


Answers:
author: Dreamsuite Mike
body: Yes, you would have to link all the cards to the "Parent card" and then you can use the automation:

> When a due date is moved in a card with the blue "Parent" label, for each card linked in the attachments, move the due date by the same amount of time

comments: author: Jill Barton
body: Thanks. Can you tell me how to do that? How do I link the cards to the parent?


author: Dreamsuite Mike
body: Hi Jill, I will be doing an article later today to show how to create this by automation. Once it is up, I'll share the link with you

How to stop "Butler could not run your rule..." emails?
Asked by Michael Forrest:

I have a Due Date automation that checks certain parameters such as custom fields and lists. If parameters are met, Butlet performs an action. If the parameters are not met, i.e., {cardname} is in a certain list, then nothing should happen.

Automation works are expected, but I am now getting multiple emails saying that "Butler could not run your rule..."

Is there any way to stop these emails?

Thank you.


Answers:
author: Felix
body: In the Automation UI, on the automation that's sending you notifications, click the lightbulb (automation log) button. At the top there's a section called "Manage automation notifications" with a checkbox for "Display errors for missing items in notification tray". Disabling that checkbox may stop the error emails you are getting.

comments: author: Michael Forrest
body: Thank you Felix. I tried it, but I continued to receive the emails. I simply created a rule in my email to filter those out.

Automation limit.
Asked by ADMINISTRACI?N 4:

I would like to know if the limit of automations is only deducted from everything you do in the automations section, or if you connect an API and make automations, this also affects the limit of automations.

Bamboo Remote Agent with Concurrent Build
Asked by JongBum Lee:

Dear All

My Build Environment : 1 Bamboo Server, 1 Remote Agent Server

(Builds always run on Remote Agent)

```
Can I specify multiple executable build slots for remote agents in bamboo?
```

(just like config of Jenkins slave : # of executions)

I want concurrent build in remote agent.  
In my environment, if one build hangs,  
the other builds are queued and just queue up until the hang is released.  

```
?
```

```
I would like to know how to enable concurrent builds without this.

How do you built system level dependent code across several distros
Asked by Michael Henke:

*This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: [Using Bamboo](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=289276852)*

I am working on a software project that utilized many system level libraries.. I was using Jenkins and had to modify the Jenkins server to change low level dependencies, adding, removing, or changing libraries based on what I needed built... Now I'd like to build with more distro versions... I am in the process of switching to Atlassian Tool Suite... How do I handle these difference build environments, independent of the Bamboo's server os..? Virtualboxes, Docker, etc...?


Answers:
author: Rich Duncan
body: In both Jenkins and Bamboo - while you can configure/reconfgure the server host, the better approach is to define slaves/agents that are appropriately configured for the software you need to build. Faced with this problem in a recent project, we chose to implement a set of docker containers for the Bamboo remote agents we required. The build plans and deployment projects selected the appropriate agent thru Bamboo's capabilities/requirements mechanism.

HTH,

Allow about Anonymous Build
Asked by JongBum Lee:

Dear All

<br />

I want to give an anonymous user build permissions using the REST API.

But, it can not be set by the permission of BAMBOO system.

How do I grant build permissions to anonymous users?

<br />

Thanks

Best Regards


Answers:
author: Alexey Chystoprudov
body: It's not secure so it's not possible in Bamboo.

If you can't configure build permission to anonymous user you can create dummy user (admin/admin) and configure REST calls to use these credentials via Basic authorization

```
curl -u admin:admin http://bamboo
```

or

```
wget --user admin --password admin http://bamboo
```

How do I establish the Build Timestamp during a deploy?
Asked by Michael Heyns:

During build I am storing information to a remote server in a direcory

```
/path/December-2016/BUILD-PLAN-KEY/
```

I would like to retrieve this during Deploy.

The Bamboo variable bamboo.buildTimeStamp is not available.

Is there any way for me to deduce the month-year value of a past build?


Answers:
author: rsperafico
body: Hello Michael,

This variable (*bamboo.buildTimeStamp*) is available to builds not deployments.

The are a few things you could do:

1. create an artifact with the result of (*bamboo.buildTimeStamp*) and consume it in your deployment
2. run an REST API call (<https://docs.atlassian.com/bamboo/REST/5.14.1/#d2e439>) from a Script task and parsing its result

```
http://localhost:8085/rest/api/latest/result/${bamboo.buildResultKey}.json
```

Firefox blocks "Adobe Flash" plugin on Bamboo startpage
Asked by Michael Benz:

We are running Bamboo 5.12.2.1 build 51213 together with JIRA and Bitbucket on our server. While Bitbucket and JIRA show no issues Firefox reports a warning that the "Adobe Flash" plugin has been stopped and must be manually confirmed. To my knowledge the Adobe Flash plugin should not be used for anything vital - what do I need to disable to get rid of that warning or the Flash plugin ?

Browser Versions are Firefox ESR 45.x or latest Firefox builds:

comments: author: Marian Simpetru
body: Is Atlassian going to address this issue? (by adding an admin setting to disable flash..)

Bamboo server authentication with bitbucket
Asked by Serge Knystautas:

We were recently kicked off of Bamboo cloud and have set up our own Bamboo server instance but are struggling to get authentication working against our Bitbucket or JIRA Cloud service. There are instructions to use Crowd, but that's another server which is neither Bitbucket or JIRA Cloud. When I try to enter <https://prestosports.jira.com/,> our JIRA Cloud instance, then Bamboo says the REST API is incorrect (which it is... the URL Bamboo builds goes to a 404 page in JIRA Cloud)

tigger a bamboo build only if there are VCS changes?
Asked by lance_lyons:

Hi,

We have as part of our entire product set, we have a dozen other applications that make the entire set. When we build the primary app, we would like to trigger all the other app builds but only have it build if there are VCS changes. This is different than trigger on a VCS change or even Repository triggers the build when changes are committed.

Is that possible? I know this is possible with Teamcity but not sure on Bamboo.


Answers:
author: rsperafico
body: Hello Lance Lyons,

**Maybe**, you could use the following URL with an script

```
http://localhost:8085/api/rest/updateAndBuild.action?buildKey=PROJ-PLAN
```

![information](/html/@4DF2F60CA30FBCA0CD7B960B5D0F871B/images/emoticons/information.png "information") Replace <http://localhost:8085> with Base URL to your Bamboo instance

![information](/html/@4DF2F60CA30FBCA0CD7B960B5D0F871B/images/emoticons/information.png "information") Replace PROJ-PLAN with plan key you want to trigger

**What the URL above does:**

Basically, it will go through all plan branches in Bamboo (including the "master" plan) checking if there are changes in the repository and if finds it any, it will trigger a build against that branch.

**Requirements:**

* You must set up a Remote Trigger in your Plan so it can accept request outside Bamboo
* Requests must be originated from IPv4 (*IPv6 will be rejected*)

Are variables created by the Inject Variables plugin in one stage available when rerunning a later stage?
Asked by Jay Seletz:

I am using the Inject Bamboo Variables plugin to inject variables in the first stage of my build, using "Result" scope. The properties file used is produced by first running a script. Later jobs in later stages depend on these variables. If a job in a later stage fails, if we select the "Re-run failed/incomplete jobs only" option, should the same variables with the same values still be available? Or does each job need to use the Inject Bamboo Variables plugin with "Local" scope for this to work?


Answers:
author: Marcin Gardias
body: Yes, that's pretty much the point of "result" variables that they are persistent and available during rerunning and in manual stages. (unless you choose to rerun the entire plan of course, in which case the variables will be re-injected).

"Local" scoped variables are only accessible in the subsequent task of the same job.

Bamboo self hosting and installation recommendations
Asked by Lahiru Amarathunga:

We are going to setting up a Bamboo server for access from multiple offices and would like to get more information on the following:

We will have around 100 build and 25 deployment plans.

Artifacts will be stored in Amazon S3 Buckets

We will plan to use Amazon Ec2 instances as remote agents.

we will use "8 core, 8 GB RAM".

if we use VM can there be any performance hit ?

what do you recommend to us VM or dedicated Server ?


Answers:
author: Daniel Wester
body: The big question is what the configuration you're using for the webapp and the database? Also how many concurrent web users will you have? And the number of remote agents? The remote agents do add load load...

For normal use a 2 core, 4GB Memory on the webapp works pretty well (and seperate the mysql to a different server).

I haven't seen a huge hit from using a VM (of course that depends on how over provisioned the VM host is etc).

I'd recommend reading over <https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/bamboo-best-practice-system-requirements-388401170.html>
