Daniel Beck commented on Bug JENKINS-24598

Build parameters are the most obvious source. Others are the characteristic environment variables defined for every build (such as BUILD_NUMBER, BUILD_ID, JOB_NAME, ...), environment variables defined globally or on nodes, plugins such as Mask Passwords or Env-Inject enabled for your project, SCMs may provide them (like SVN_URL from Subversion plugin), the install location of the JDK configured for your project, ...

But setting a value in a shell build step and using it afterwards in the rest of the job configuration has to the best of my knowledge never worked. Some references:

None of them state it outright, but if it were this easy, you'd think one person would speak up and mention this. People are even writing plugins to provide this feature.
