I have been trying to follow the instructions on how to change the default view in Jenkins here.
I've created another view that I would like to be the default, but when I go looking for the Default View
setting in Manage Jenkins -> Configure System
it doesn't seem to be there. Is there something I have to do to make it show up? Or is it tucked away somewhere else?
If someone has it working can they indicate where about in the config screen (immediately before/after something else) so I can double check.
I am using Jenkins 1.447
Add new viewOn the Jenkins main page, click the + tab to start the new view wizard (If you do not see a +, it is likely you do not have permission to create a new view). On the create new view page, give your view a name and select the Dashboard type and click ok.
Another test confirmed that "https://{account}.ci.cloudbees.com/delete" deletes the default view. In "Manage Jenkins", set ".." as the default view. Enter "https://{account}.ci.cloudbees.com/delete" into the URL bar. Go back to "Manage Jenkins" to set a new default view.
Views in Jenkins allow us to organize jobs and content into tabbed categories, which are displayed on the main dashboard. As a Jenkins instance expands, it is logical to create associated views for appropriate groups and categories.
from comment> When I go to Manage Jenkins -> Configure System
and Default View
, all our "public" views are listed there in the drop down.
Make sure the view you created isn't just in "My Views" for your user, and is open to everyone.
"Manage Jenkins" > "Configure System" >
The default view option is just after the "SCM checkout retry count" and before "enable security"
See below:
You should not have to change anything to have it show up. You might need more than one view, but it seems you have already created another one...
