Can we restrict some job config fields from update operations

[Samith Dassanayake]

Hi all,

Once we create a job, can we restrict some particular fields, for update using "Fetch/Update config.xml" rest endpointI.

For example assume my job config is like below and I want to restrict changes to "description"  field using rest api

<project>

    <actions/>

    <description>deploys to cloud instance</description>

    <keepDependencies>false</keepDependencies>

    <properties/>

    <scm class="hudson.scm.NullSCM"/>

    <canRoam>true</canRoam>

    <disabled>false</disabled>

    <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false</blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>

    <blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>false</blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>

    <triggers class="vector"/>

    <concurrentBuild>false</concurrentBuild>

    <builders>

        <hudson.tasks.Shell>

            <command>echo "deploying to prod"</command>

        </hudson.tasks.Shell>

    </builders>

    <publishers/>

    <buildWrappers/>

</project>

Thanks,

Samith
