Specify the name or ID of the application, e.g. "PetClinic" or "Applications/MyDirectory/PetClinic".
If only the name is specified and the application does not exist, the application will be created during the import of the dar. If the fully qualified id is specified and the application does not exist, the application will be created is the directory specified during import. Please note that the directory has to exist in the XL Deploy Repository.
Note that in any XL Deploy instance, the application name must be unique even across directories. Also, for backwards compatibility reasons, only the name (not the full ID) is used to find an application. Thus, an application can be freely moved among XL Deploy directories without needing to change the Jenkins job configuration.
You can use Jenkins Env variables, e.g. Applications/MyDirectory/$JOB_NAME
