Hello Sajith, *I was wondering if you are able to find the solution for this. *
*I am trying to create new item/job through jenkins rest api but for the api call i need to upload a config.xml. I want to know if I can instead send json or upload a json * *based file as config in place of config.xml* *Do you have any thoughts or recommend ways to get the json based config for jenkins job? * *Any help would be appreciated.* *Thanks,* *Rakesh* On Thursday, 9 October 2014 19:39:10 UTC-7, Sajith Kariyawasam wrote: > > Thanks Daniel for the quick response. > > According to https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Remote+access+API > seems the /job/JOB_NAME/build is a JSON based API. > I was wondering why there is no JSON based API for creating a job.?
