Creating a rundeck job using REST API

[PHANI KUMAR YADAVILLI]

Hi Everyone, 

Is there any way i can create a rundeck job using a rest client to the rundeck rest api.

Any pointers or code snippets are really helpful.

Hi,

You first would need to have or generate a job definition but with that you would use the api to import it to a project. http://rundeck.org/docs/api/index.html#importing-jobs

Hi Alex,

You mean to say we need to create a job definition i.e XML or YAML and send it as a post request to the rundeck import rest end point?

Hi Alex,

As per the documentation for Exporting the jobs how to use the project parameter. Could you please provide an example as i do not see any examples in the documentation. 

Exporting Jobs

Export the job definitions for in XML or YAML formats.

URL:

/api/1/jobs/export

Required parameters:

• project

Optional parameters:

• format : can be "xml" or "yaml" to specify the output format. Default is "xml"

The following parameters can also be used to narrow down the result set.

• idlist: specify a comma-separated list of Job IDs to export
• groupPath: specify a group or partial group path to include all jobs within that group path.
• jobFilter: specify a filter for the job Name

Correct.

Hi PHANI KUMAR YADAVILLI ,

Did you ever figure out how to duplicate job via rest api or command line?
