Hello @imran2908 and welcome to this community 👋

To trigger a Jenkins scripted pipeline with a variable as a parameter from another scripted pipeline, I think you can make use of the `build` step and pass the parameter value using the `parameters` option.

with build steps I am able to pass the variable within the same job. But when I am trying to pass this variable as parameter to another job, its not taking the value of the parameter.
