Add users dynamically to Build Forge adapter
Does anyone know how to easily add people who did not make any code changes to the Build Forge notification list? The only way in which I got this to work is by adding them to the adapter's code.
I changed the following:
<adduser group="MyChangers" user="$4"/>
To:
<adduser group="MyChangers" user="userid_1"/>
<adduser group="MyChangers" user="userid_2"/>
<adduser group="MyChangers" user="userid_3"/>
However, this is very inconvenient:
Thanks,

There is .email, but that sends an step_email template email to a user. There is no way to add them to a group temporarily for a notification. The adaptor is the only way to do that.

Thanks for the reply. Is it possible to specify the name of a BF access group in the adapter somehow??
Jozef
You can.
You will simply need to list the Access Group by name under the <adduser> element in the adaptor instead of a username.
ie:
<adduser group="MyChangers" user="Notify Group"/>

Wow - works! Thanks Josh!!

I'm disappointed to have to report that this does not work anymore when using the new Java engine... The value passed is not interpreted as a group anymore, but as a user, which of course does not exist.
Any ideas on how to get this back to work when using the MJC?
Thanks,
Jozef
