get a field value from a jenkins JSON API












1














i have a jenkins JSON API that gives me an output stored in a variable data



{"credentials":{"xxxxxxxxxxxxxx111":{},"xxxxxxxxxxxx2222":{}},"description":"All credentials that are not bound to a specific domain.","displayName":"Global credentials","fullDisplayName":"Credentials » Global credentials","fullName":"credential-store/_","global":true,"urlName":"_"}


i want only the values of the credentials field xxxxxxxxxxxxxx111 and xxxxxxxxxxxx2222



the things that i have tried so far is



echo $data | grep "credentials"
echo $data | jq -e '.credentials|{}' -c


which does not work
can somebody please suggest something that works.

  • In your example, the elements inside the credentials object are empty objects. What are the values you're looking at? Please update your question with the expected output.

You can use this jq filter:



jq -r '.credentials|to_entries|.|.key' file


The function to_entries allows to get both key and value that can then be filtered with key keyword.
