This is emphasis on @seeker 's answer.

Pay extra attention to getting the crumb step

As the other answers mentioned, the crumb you get may differ depending on the browser you use to browse to Jenkins, be it Chrome, Curl or WGet.

But, and this is an important but, the crumb that I used for the CURL command is the one I got from the WGET command. It isn't the crumb I got from the CURL -X GET command.

I am not clear on why this is the case, but like in @Seeker 's answer, this worked for me.

I got different crumbs when

1. Browsing to http://qajenkins:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml

2. Browsing to http://10.143.18.43:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml (qajenkins = 10.143.18.43)

3. Running

   curl -X WGET http://10.143.18.43:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml

4. Or running

   wget -q --auth-no-challenge --user raamee --password 12345678 --output-document - 'http://10.143.18.43:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml?xpath=concat(//crumbRequestField,":",//crumb)';echo

In order to get the curl command

curl -X POST -H "Jenkins-Crumb:2e03fc96f387abggga6581fe5883a14a" http://10.143.18.43:8080/view/Raamee_phase_2/job/test_remote_api_triggerring/buildWithParameters?token=MY_TOKEN --user "raamee:12345678"

I used the crumb I got from the wget command, the 4th command.
