VCS settings for Clear Case UCM Plugin for Jenkins [on hold]
I am using Jenkins and its ClearCase UCM plugin, but am unable to make it work (make ClearCase checkout the proper view in the Jenkins job workspace).
I have been trying to set up source code to ClearCase, but it is asking too many inputs and I am not aware what to fill.
It is asking for the following fields:
Viewtag : Jenkins_$USER_NAME_$NODE_NAME_$JOB_NAME$DASH_WORKSPACE_NUMBER
View Path:
Stream Selector.
Can anybody help with this?
What should be the correct values for ClearCase to work properly, that is get the code in the Jenkins job workspace?

Exactly. How can this be off topic.

The title is "Clear Case UCM Plugin for Jenkins", that's how. The title should be summarising the gist of the issue.

The JENKINS ClearCase UCM Plugin, like any other VCS (Version Control System) Jenkins plugin, needs to access the sources in order for Jenkins to checkout said sources in a Jenkins workspace.
For that:
The plugin will automatically create a snapshot view in a folder named 'view' in the root of the job's workspace.
Snapshot views can - as opposed to dynamic views - be located anywhere, which we exploit to place it inside the job's workspace.
Dynamic Views can only reside on the location where your mvfs is located and that is not inside the workspace.
It should not ask for the field you mention.
Instead:
The ClearCase UCM plugin introduces several build variables:
CC_BASELINE
CC_VIEWTAG
CC_VIEWPATH
%WORKSPACE%view
You can setup a job using that plugin by making it monitor changes in your ClearCase UCM VOBs by polling for new baselines on a given stream.

@SamuelLiew "Moved to chat"? First, thank you. Second, How?? I tried to create a room and invite the OP, but he didn't have enough reputation points for that. See my request from 8 years ago: meta.stackexchange.com/q/59716/6309

@rajvardhan only a dynamic view can give you access to those files, unless they are private.
