OpenID Plugin redirects REST API requests also

    • Windows. Java 1.7. SSL-only.

      As far as I can tell, the OpenID plugin prevents use of the REST API, even for its most obvious use to trigger build. A GET of a URL:

      https://username:apikey@jenkinshostname.domain.com/job/JobName/config.xml

      gets redirected for OpenID auth, which a REST API consumer, having provided an API key, does not expect to have to deal with.

      Is this broken? Workaround? Fix?

          I'm also having the same issue.

          I've tried 

          curl -uUSER:TOKEN https://hostname/jenkins/view/Active/api/json?token=TOKEN

          but it returns a 403 with a redirect to /jenkins/securityRealm/commenceLogin.

          I had this issue, hope this might help someone else: in my case, it was the reverse-proxy stripping out the auth header before reaching Jenkins (we had "RequestHeader unset Authorization" in our Apache config for some reason). It works fine now.
