Create default admin user on Jenkins own user database

[Siva Bagavathy]

Dear Team,

As part of automation, I need to create and invoke Jobs using Jenkins API. I have deployed jenkins container on Kubernetes cluster using helm chart. Hence I need Jenkins to have at least one admin user in its own database (Jenkins' own user database) after install. By default, its Delegate to servlet container . How to do it ? Could you help me.

Thanks

You did not mention the image used for starting the container.

If the image was built by you, then you can provision groovy (kind of startup) scripts that can be baked in to the Docker image (as part of Docker build process). 

Docs in this repo could give you some leads, https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker

Hi Ram,

The jenkins image version is jenkins-master:2.176.3

I am using a helm chart for deployment. 

Thanks,

Siva
