使用API​​密钥的Jenkins / Hudson API访问不起作用

Question

I'm trying to access my Jenkins build though the api however am unsure whether it is possible to do with a straight forward URL.

I've basically built a local website in which I have something like:

var jsonAPI = "http://jenkinsurl.com/build/api/json"

However I need authenticated. So i found my API Token but how do I put it together - is it like:

var jsonAPI = "http://jenkinsurl.com/build/api/json?apitoken=xxxxxxx"

Thanks

API Token is basically like a password. You still need to supply a username/password pair at HTTP authentication.

You can try (replace apitoken with actual token):
http://username:apitoken@jenkinsurl.com/build/api/json
or with curl:
curl -u username:apitoken http://jenkinsurl.com/build/api/json
