Jenkins—get “Build Time Trend” values using “Remote Access API”

Question

Is there a way that we can get all Jenkins-"Build Time Trend" information ( Build number + Status[success/failed etc] + Duration ) for an application; using the Jenkins remote access API?

Or else I would appreciate if you could post a link of any documentation on how to get information from Jenkins using the Remote Access API. Most of the sources consist of the way of running jobs, but I couldn't find any, which shows how to fetch information from jenkins.

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can use something like this URL:

http://jenkins:8080/job/MY-APPLICATION/api/json?tree=builds[number,id,timestamp,result,duration]

There's a little more documentation in the root api element:

http://jenkins:8080/job/MY-APPLICATION/api

I admit to not completely understanding the tree parameter. I couldn't find a simple example of retrieving the entire builds subtree.

You can access the entire subtree of an element by using [*] such as http://jenkins:8080/job/MY-APPLICATION/api/json?tree=builds[*]

For retrieving ALL builds, use

http://jenkins:8080/job/MY-APPLICATION/api/json?tree=allBuilds[number,id,timestamp,result,duration]

Note that B is capitalized in allBuilds
