Email Extension Plugin in Jenkins is not resolving global variables and groovy Template for Outlook emails

Question

Jenkins version - 2.275 Email extension plugin version - 2.81

Examples of global variables and templates not getting resolved are -

1. ${BUILD_NUMBER}
2. ${BUILD_STATUS}
3. groovy-html.template

Note - The problem is only seen with Outlook emails, for Gmail I am getting the desired email format.

**UPDTAE ** Strangely it has started to work again without making any changes.

Answer 1

I faced same problem, be sure to put your string in double-quotes, otherwise variables are not processed, exg:

"${BUILD_NUMBER}"

I also noticed, that they removed variable 'BUILD_STATUS' completely from the global reference list, visible here: /pipeline-syntax/globals

its in named version available as:

"${currentBuild.currentResult}"

Strangely it has started to work again without making any changes.
