Hi
Not sure if this is a bug or by design.
I set a variable called aws\_environment in variables as a default value 'aws\_ci'
This gets updated in my first stage called 'build' to 'aws\_uat1'
I then reference this in my 2nd stage 'Stage' and it is now 'aws\_ci'
Yo will see below from my log the last line of stage one the variable is correct and the first line of stage 2 it has be reset.
Thanks
Rob

It’s most definitely a regression bug. Looking into it.
