Jenkins ver. 1.625.3
build-token-root v1.4
I'm trying to trigger a job configured to accept a file parameter named dist.
Triggering this job works fine from the Jenkins web UI and curl (if I provide user:token credentials).
POSTing to /buildByToken/buildWithParameters?token=... with the same form data triggers a build, but no matter what I try the file isn't passed on to the job.
Works:
curl -X POST "https://.../job/.../build?token=..." \
--user user:api-token \
-F file0=@$(shell pwd)/dist.json \
-F json='{"parameter": [{"name": "dist", "file": "file0"}]}'
Doesn't work:
curl -X POST "https://.../buildByToken/buildWithParameters?job=job&token=..." \
-F file0=@$(shell pwd)/dist.json \
-F json='{"parameter": [{"name": "dist", "file": "file0"}]}'
The issue might be related to the fact that Jenkins seemed to ignore the file when I POSTed to /buildWithParameters, it only worked when posting to /build.
Thanks in advance!
[JENKINS-38658] File parameters are ignored

added a comment - The build root token plugin is great. But it's really unfortunate that is doesn't support file parameters.

added a comment - Any updates on the issue? Once you disabled jenkins-cli.jar and SSH remote invocation, the only way to start a job with parameters is curl. curl to /build doesn't work as doesn't return job id (JENKINS-30317) and /buildWithParameters doesn't accept file parameters. So currently I'm fully blocked.

It looks like /buildWithParameters doesn't support files:

I haven't looked at the plugin source code, but this might be solved by simply allowing parameters to be passed to /buildByToken/build, enabling the following:
