Use Jenkins in Okou

Use a self-hosted Jenkins controller to inspect jobs, builds, agents, and the build queue, trigger and parameterized builds, and manage jobs.

Once connected, supported Jenkins actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Jenkins

  • Read Jenkins top-level information, jobs, job configuration, builds, console output, agents, and the build queue.
  • Trigger new and parameterized builds.

How the Jenkins connector works

A connected service becomes one permissioned step in the work you hand off.

    Choose the work

    Use only the supported actions your workflow needs.

Connect Jenkins securely

Use the connection method that fits your account and grant only the access the workflow needs.

  • Username and API Token

Connector access is controlled per service and per action, so a workflow does not need broader access than the work you ask it to do.
