Lets say we have a job called "test_job" and your username is "amund" and your token is "my_long_token_string" and your "test_job" is parameter driven, then:
consider your patameter name is: "name".
command example:
curl -X POST http://amund:my_long_token_string@jenkins_server:8080/job/test_job/build --data-urlencode json='{"parameter":[{"name":"name","value":"your value"}]}'
NOTE:
http://username:token@IP:port/job/job_name/build --data-urlencode json='{"parameter":[{"name":"name","value":"your value"}]}'
You can also use your username and password, but its not recommended:
curl -X POST --user <username>:<password> http://jenkins_server/job/your_job/build --form json='{"parameter":[{"name":"given_name","value":"your_value"}]}'
OR
curl -X POST --user <username>:<password> http://jenkins_server/job//your_job/build --form json='{"parameter":[{"name":"given_name","value":"your_value"}]}'
If you want to create a script on the top of the curl call, you can do that, note that within the json if you are using a variable you need to use as example:
example:
IPADDRESS=$@
in general we can use as ${IPADDRESS} or $IPADDRESS
inside json data, we need to use as:
"'"$IPADDRESS"'"
which is: " then ' then " and close the same.
example:
curl -X POST http://${USER}:${TOKEN}@${JENKINS_SERVER}/${JOB} --data-urlencode json='{"parameter":[{"name":"IPs","value":"'"$IPADDRESS"'"}]}'
