Can we use ssh-task in bamboo yaml spec?

[Venkatesh Nannan]

We are trying to move our deployment plans to bamboo yml spec as it was released in 6.9 version. 

We are not able to find any documentation related to ssh-tasks that we used to login to different environments and deploy. Is that task available in bamboo yaml spec?

Hello @Venkatesh Nannan welcome to the community :)

It's great to hear that you and your team are moving to Bamboo Specs YAML!

If you want to execute a command through SSH, you will need to write it using a script task. Here is a tutorial with an example on how to do it.

Specific for the SSH Tasks, there is no explicit task to be used, I have added a suggestion for you https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-20477.

Did it help?

Hello @Victor Debone 

This doesn't help when you have to provide the password. correct?

I have my bamboo running as bamboo user. My ssh task needs to be run using some service account.

When I create a script task it will let bamboo user ssh as service account and fail. Any idea how to fix this? 

I cannot have users with access to bamboo use this service account.

How to achieve this in a best way?
