    I tried this on multibranch pipeline and it doesn't work.

    stage('stage1') {
      steps {
        wrap([$class: 'BuildUser']) {
          sh 'echo "${BUILD_USER}"'
          sh 'echo "${BUILD_USER_ID}"'
          sh 'echo "${BUILD_USER_EMAIL}"'
        }
    }


    I am using version 1.5 of Build User Vars Plugin

    Try without invoking sh, just echo direct like so:

    stage('stage1') {
      steps {
        wrap([$class: 'BuildUser']) {
          echo "${BUILD_USER}"
          echo "${BUILD_USER_ID}"
          echo "${BUILD_USER_EMAIL}"
        }
    }
