Body: <p>I have a pipeline that ends with a step which call build() to run another pipeline, not waiting for its end.
  Even when the downstream pipeline is finished, there is no downstream/upstream indication on each job page or build page.
  Is there some trick to retrieve such a relationshi ?
  Also, could it be possible to use the Downstream Build View plugin ?</p>
  <p>Thanks for your help.

  The upstream/downstream relationship is for Freestyle jobs only and does not work for Pipeline. This is because [the internal (Java) Freestyle job API that the upstream/downstream feature uses to discover job relationships does not exist for Pipeline jobs](https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-29913). This also means that any 3rd-party upstream/downstream-related plugins such as the Downstream Build View plugin will not work for Pipeline jobs.
