add build information to the successful build email

[Paul B]

in bamboo 2.6.3, we would send information about a build in the build email by outputting to stderr from the build script, and the successful build email would contain and display all the stderr output. Now that I have bamboo 4.4, it seems I can not add any informational text to the successful build email. Do you know a way for me to add build information to successful build email?

Wow! Big jump in versions. You have probably noticed that there are no longer just projects and plans, but now projects, plans, stages, jobs, and tasks. Because a single plan can have multiple jobs, the plan emails no longer contain a log snippets because there may be multiple log snippets.

In your plan's notification settings, there are now two sets of notifications -- plan and job. If you want log snippets in your email, you will need to create job-level notifications.

thank you. that was just what I was looking for. I would have never guessed that solution. (and I did not find this explaination anywhere in the docs.)
