REST API for promoting builds

[bedge]

I read a lot of people talking about the REST API for build promotion, but I
can't find any documentation on it.

What is the URL/API for forcing a job promotion?

I second that question-- how to do this?  is there any documentation on the REST API for Jenkins Promoted Builds Plugin?

Thanks!

This is also what I am missing for a long time. I had the impression that promoted build being a second-class job, there are some features exposed by REST API but not complete. It would be very nice if performing/copying/creating/removing a promotion could be fully supported by REST API, cli and sshd interfaces.
I wanted to implement a web frontend for our non-technical users (Jenkins GUI is not necessarily intuitive for them), using Jenkins (solely) as a backend engine via remote API, the only missing part is performing promotion and retrieving promotion information. At the moment I have to parse various promotion pages to  gather the informations as a workaround.
Hopefully this discussion can draw some attetion in this direction.
