In addition to the the regular Bamboo Variable Substitution/Definition, some tasks also support the substitution of custom variables to ease composing unique names when operating multiple AWS resources at once, for example creating EBS snapshots from a set of EBS volumes, or EC2 images from a set of EC2 instances.
On this page:
Custom Variable Support
Custom variables are currently substituted in the following task configuration text fields:
| Task | Action | Fields |
|---|---|---|
