How to set the build description via Jenkins REST API or Python?

Question

Is there any way (like Jenkins REST API or Python module) to set the existing jenkins build's build description ?

Many thanks :)

It seems this problem was resolved in this question, as follows:

curl -u $USER:$PASSWORD --data-urlencode "description=$new_description" \
    --data-urlencode "Submit=Submit" \
    "$jenkins_url/job/$job_name/$build_number/submitDescription"
