CLI command to start jenkins job with default and overriden parameters

[Vicki Kozel]

Hello,

I am having trouble with combining default and overriden parameters when invoking jenkins jobs through remote CLI command.  

It  looks like the following invocation passes command line parameters to a job just fine, but ignores the default parameters:

curl -v https://jenkins/job/JobName/build -F json='{"parameter": [{"name": "targ_env", "value": "dev"}]}' --user userName:userToken

and the invocation on buildWithParameters api does the opposite - ignores the passed parameters and sets all the defaults correctly:

curl -v https://jenkins/job/JobName/buildWithParameters -F json='{"parameter": [{"name": "targ_env", "value": "dev"}]}' --user userName:userToken

Is there an API that can combine two sets of parameters?

Thank you!!

Hi Vicki,

According to https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Parameterized+Build, for buildWithParameters you should use URL query params to pass the values.

 

To use your example:

curl -v https://jenkins/job/JobName/buildWithParameters?targ_env=dev  --user userName:userToken

 

 

Regards,

Daniel

Thank you Daniel! Do you know if there is a way to pass a file parameter this way?
