    What is the best way to call Endevor Rest API's from Jenkins? Is there a Jenkin's plugins available? 

    We dont want to use curl with mainframe user id and password specified as part of the request. We are looking for a way that mainframe credentials supplied as jenkins credentials. Could you please suggest on this?

     

    Thank you!

    What if you had an Endevor Command line interface?  Wouldn't that be easier?  You could just issue ENDEVOR LIST, ENDEVOR MOVE command etc.
    This would remove the need to build CURL or even programmatically interpret results, you could just test the return code.  If this sounds like something that would be valuable, please check out Project Brightside at validate.ca.com

    Hi Eoin,


    Doing it through Brightside requires a lot of extra coding and a steep learning curve for Gulp or some other coding lingo


    A certified plug-in for Eclipse will allow the Jenkins scheduler to interact with any product more easily.

    Just compare the package plugin to doing the same in Gulp/Brightside
