Access to chainId from kotlin dsl

Hi,

As part of my build I would like to send a notification with a link to the build chain. Looking at the TC UI I can see there is a chainId that is used to construct a URL to an individual build chain instance (like https://my-teamcity/viewChain.html?chainId=bt20539-2067039&selectedBuildTypeId=&contextProjectId=MyProjectId) Can I get access to this chainId from inside an instance of BuildType? Or is there any other way to reference the chain?

Regards

Nic

Hello Nic,

Could you please let me know why a link to the build results page with Dependencies tab pre-selected would not work? Something like

<TeamCity URL>/buildConfiguration/<build configuration ID>/<build ID>?buildTab=dependencies&mode=chain

in classic UI or

<TeamCity URL>/viewLog.html?buildId=<build ID>&buildTypeId=<build configuration ID>&tab=dependencies

in experimental UI (starting from 2020.2) would yield you the Dependencies tab link for the build in question.

That being said, the chainID appears to be generated as <internal build configuration ID>-<build ID>; but the internal build configuration ID is not available in the build parameters, and would have to be requested by the REST API with an additional request; thus I would recommend the above approach. Please let me know if this helps.

Hi Fedor,

Thank very much for you reply. The experimental UI dependency tab is just what I'm after - a great suggestion. I'm new around TeamCity and I have to say there are many ways to do the same or very similar things, plus I had not even found the experimental UI :-)

Regards,

Nic
