title: TeamCity - using setParameter to pass information between build steps
body: <p>I must be doing something differently than what was asked and answered here because the solution does not appear to be working for me: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8219493/teamcity-passing-an-id-generated-in-one-build-step-to-a-later-build-step">TeamCity, passing an id generated in one build step to a later build step</a></p>
  
  <p>I want use a string generated by one build step in a final build step. So far I have set up an environmental variable called "TEST" that is empty. Both build steps use the Command Line Runner.</p>
  
  <p>Build Step #1:</p>
  
  <pre><code>\##teamcity[setParameter name='env.TEST' value='test']
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Build Step #2:</p>
  
  <pre><code>echo $TEST
  
  echo %env.TEST%;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Placeholder for now, but if I could access the test string ('test') set in Build Step 1 I would be so happy.</p>
