How to keep track of pending builds in Jenkins?

Question

I need to find what build id's were assigned to a pending build in Jenkins.

I saw that Build History keeps track of them and displays them to the user but I didn't find them displayed in an api form (xml in my case) at this link

http://localhost:8080/job/JobName/api/xml

How can I get this information from Jenkins ?

Answer 1

Use the queue API:

JENKINS_URL/queue/api/xml
