here is the code in the Multibranch pipeline

post {

always

{ echo 'Test run completed' }

success {

script {

if (env.BRANCH_NAME == 'master') {

echo 'Sucessfully'

build job: 'Data-Deploy-Dev', parameters: [

string(name: 'DOCKER_APP_IMAGE_TAG', value: "${env.DOCKER_APP_IMAGE_TAG}"),

string(name: 'DOCKER_WEB_IMAGE_TAG', value: "${env.DOCKER_WEB_IMAGE_TAG}")

], wait: false

}

else

{ echo 'Sucessfully!' }

}

}

failure

{ echo 'Failed!' }

unstable

{ echo 'This will run only if the run was marked as unstable' }

changed

{ echo 'This will run only if the state of the Pipeline has changed' echo 'For example, if the Pipeline was previously failing but is now successful' }

}

 

the pipeline job Data-Deploy-Dev is present, but still it errors as not found
