Hello There:

I need your help to create a new JOB in RunDeck using Rest API or Jenkins plug-in.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Rahul,

Yes, you can use the REST API to import a job definition. You can also use the `rd jobs load` CLI to do the same.

Thanks

Thank you so much, Alex.

Just want to make sure if this is the correct way to execute an API in RunDeck

 curl -X POST -H x-rundeck-auth-token:$RD_TOKEN -H "Content-Type: application/yaml" --data @/tmp/job_config2.yaml  http://10.0.0.9:4440/api/1/project/Jenkins-ci/jobs/import

I'm running it like mentioned above but seeing the following

<result error='true' apiversion='24'>
  <error code='api.error.jobs.import.invalid'>
    <message>Jobs Document was invalid for format xml: mapping values are not allowed here
 in "&lt;reader&gt;", line 1, column 35:
    - defaultTab: summary  description: 'Test import'  executionEnable ...
                                      ^
</message>
  </error>


JOB YAML file

- defaultTab: summary
  description: 'Test import'
  executionEnabled: true

Thanks Alex!
I got this created with XML type but still not with YAML

curl -X POST -H x-rundeck-auth-token:$RD_TOKEN -H "Content-Type: application/yaml" --data @/tmp/job_config2.yaml http://10.0.0.0:4440/api/14/project/Jenkins-ci/jobs/import fileformat=yaml

here is the error again

<result error='true' apiversion='24'>
  <error code='api.error.jobs.import.invalid'>
    <message>Jobs Document was invalid for format xml: mapping values are not allowed here
 in "&lt;reader&gt;", line 1, column 35:
    - defaultTab: summary  description: 'Test import'  executionEnable ...
                                      ^
</message>
  </error>


am I adding this at right place?

No need for a space between the url and the query param. EG http://10.0.0.0:4440/api/14/project/Jenkins-ci/jobs/import?fileformat=yaml

Hi Rahul,

One other change... use --data-binary rather than --data. 
EG curl -X POST -H x-rundeck-auth-token:$RD_TOKEN -H "Content-Type: application/yaml" --data-binary @/tmp/mynew.yaml http://10.0.0.0/4440/api/14/project/Jenkins-ci/jobs/import?fileformat=yaml
