Specifying branch name for jenkins job through AnyStatus

Question

I am wondering if anyone else has integrated before a parameterized Jenkins build with AnyStatus.

When removing the parameter above, I am able to run builds using the branch specified previously from the browser, but that's not the idea. There is a post explaining that I can use a script, but that wouldn't be integrated with AnyStatus in the existing Jenkin's plugin.

Oh, I figured it out. I just went to the job configuration, activated the "build is parameterized" checkbox, added a string parameter called BRANCH, and in the "branches to build" section added ${BRANCH}. Pretty much what is explained here:
