Delete uploaded job logs

Have you ever accidentally output something sensitive in a build log before? 😣 If you have, that's ok - we've got your back…

You can now delete logs via our UI. To do so, simply hit the Delete button on a job log and it'll be instantly deleted.

Delete job logs on Buildkite

Deleted jobs logs are permanently removed from our servers, and can't be recovered. ☠️

Shell-friendly job environment variables

If you’ve ever needed to re-run a job locally using the same environment variables that were used in a build, we’ve some good news: the Environment tab on each job now shows the values in a shell-friendly format for easy copy and pasting. 📄🐢

BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER="956"
BUILDKITE_COMMAND="echo \"Oh hai\""

We've also added a “Show export Prefix” button which prefixes each line with bash’s export builtin command, for easily re-running scripts or processes with those values:

$ export BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER="956"
$ export BUILDKITE_COMMAND="echo \"Oh hai\""
$ ./my-script.sh

Happy script debugging! 🕷️

👍🏿 \:+1\:\:skin-tone-6\:
👍🏾 \:+1\:\:skin-tone-5\:
👍🏽 \:+1\:\:skin-tone-4\:
👍🏼 \:+1\:\:skin-tone-3\:
👍🏻 \:+1\:\:skin-tone-2\:
👍 \:+1\:

See all the emojis we support (including custom ones like :ruby: :linux: :docker:) over on our GitHub Emojis repository :github:

Our JavaScript Emoji Technology™ is now open source on GitHub including a Webpack loader and a ES6 string parser. Feel free to have a look to see how it all works 🕵

And don't forget… with great power, comes great 🌯
