Jenkins 1.593
Hello,
We are trying to trigger builds remotely using the REST api. Using the build pipeline plugin we can successfully trigger build jobs (first job in the pipeline). But there is a need to trigger downstream jobs and take the pipeline forward using the REST api.
For Eg: Job A — build job
Job B — deploy artifacts from job A to DEV environment
Job C — deploy to QA
All this using REST api in the build pipeline. This functionality would be very helpful and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Currently the build pipeline plugin doesn't support triggering downstream build using REST api. Can this be achieved ?
Thanks
Ram
There is a GSoC 2019 project that proposes to wrap a java jenkins-rest library in the form of a Jenkins plugin, would that be a viable solution? If you are interested please reach out on https://gitter.im/jenkinsci/gsoc-sig
