Introduction

Welcome to the GoCD API! You can use our API to access GoCD API endpoints, which can get information about the server’s configuration and build history. In addition it can be used to update configuration and execute builds.

We currently provide language bindings in Shell! You can view code examples on the right-hand side of the page.

All APIs SHOULD be accessed from https://go-server-url:8154/go/api. All data SHOULD be sent and recieved as JSON, specifically application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json. You may access the APIs over plain text, but for security reasons we suggest that you use SSL.

API versions

It is recommended to explicitly request the version of an API via the Accept header.

Accept: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json

Accept: application/vnd.go.cd.v2+json etc

If you specify an unsupported Accept header, GoCD will respond with the error message The url you are trying to reach appears to be incorrect.

Important: The version of an API may change in the future. If you care about the stability of the API, make sure that you are requesting a specific version in the Accept header as shown in the example above.

Authentication

All APIs require you to authenticate yourself using your username and password. Starting with version 19.2.0 of GoCD, users may also use a bearer token to authenticate. A cookie will also be returned as a result of the first authentication call. You may use this cookie for any further authentication attempts. If authentication fails, GoCD server may return status codes 401, 403 or 404.

Bearer token authentication

Available since v19.2.0.

# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
$ curl 'https://ci.example.com/go/api/current_user' \
      -H 'Authorization: bearer YOUR_TOKEN' \
      -H 'Accept: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json'

  "email": "demo@example.com",
  "email_me": true,
  "checkin_aliases": []
}

To generate an access token, navigate to https://ci.example.com:8154/go/access_tokens, or use the access token API.

Basic authentication

# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
$ curl 'https://ci.example.com/go/api/current_user' \
      -u 'username:password' \
      -H 'Accept: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json'

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json; charset=utf-8
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=15kvus1kdrec46vk2a6jmtmo;Path=/go;Expires=Mon, 15-Jun-2015 10:16:20 GMT

{
  "_links": {
    "doc": {
      "href": "https://api.gocd.org/#users"
    },
    "current_user": {
      "href": "https://ci.example.com/go/api/current_user"
    },
    "self": {
      "href": "https://ci.example.com/go/api/users/username"
    },
    "find": {
      "href": "https://ci.example.com/go/api/users/:login_name"
    }
  },
  "login_name": "username",
  "display_name": "username",
  "enabled": true,
  "email": "demo@example.com",
  "email_me": true,
  "checkin_aliases": []
}

To use Basic Authentication with the GoCD API, simply send the username and password associated with the account.

Using the cookie/session returned from the previous API call, one can make further API calls. Using a cookie will dramatically improve performance of API calls especially if GoCD is authenticating against an external source like LDAP.

# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
$ curl 'https://ci.example.com/go/api/current_user' \

Server Health

The server health API allows users to monitor if the GoCD server is up and running. Usually used for health checks in Docker and Kubernetes.

Check Server Health

$ curl 'https://ci.example.com/go/api/v1/health'

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json; charset=utf-8
{
  "health": "OK"
}

This API will indicate if the server is up.

Available since v17.11.0.

HTTP Request

GET /go/api/v1/health

Agent Health

The agents API allows users to monitor if the agent is connected to the server and is authorized to perform a build.

Note: For security reasons, this endpoint is only bound to the localhost interface. If you’re accessing the endpoint from a remote machine and want to expose this endpoint externally — please see this documentation on how to configure the endpoint bind address and port.

Check agent-server connectivity

$ curl 'http://localhost:8152/health/v1/isConnectedToServer'

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

OK!

This API when invoked on an agent, will indicate if the agent-server connectivity is in a state that allows agents to run builds.

Available since v17.11.0.

HTTP Request

GET /health/v1/isConnectedToServer

You may alternatively use:

GET /health/latest/isConnectedToServer

which will render the most recent version of the api.

Returns

A status code 200 along with text OK! if all the following conditions are met:

able to establish HTTP(s) contact with the server
is authorized by the server (by an admin, or by auto-registration)

The endpoint will return status 503 in any other cases.

Two consecutive failing pings will be treated as having failed healthcheck.

Encryption

The encryption API allows users with any administrator privilege to get the cipher text(encrypted text) corresponding to any plain text value. You may use this cipher text in other APIs that allow you to configure the pipelines and templates.

Important:This API is rate limited to 30 requests per minute to prevent brute force attacks that may allow attackers to guess the cipher key. The number of requests is configurable by the system property go.encryption.api.max.requests. Please check this documentation on how to configure system properties.

Encrypt a plain text value

$ curl 'https://ci.example.com/go/api/admin/encrypt' \
-u 'username:password' \
-H 'Accept: application/vnd.go.cd.v1+json' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-X POST -d '{
  "value": "badger"
}'

Update pipeline config for specified pipeline name.

Note: The update pipeline API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current pipeline config resource.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the pipeline config, leading to a conflict.

Available since v15.3.0.

HTTP Request

PUT /go/api/admin/pipelines/:pipeline_name

Returns

The updated pipeline config object.

Update template config for specified template name.

Note: The update template config API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current template resource.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the template config, leading to a conflict.

Available since v16.10.0.

HTTP Request

PUT /go/api/admin/template/:template_name

Returns

The updated template object.

Note: The update pipeline group API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current role.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the pipeline group config, leading to a conflict.

Available since v18.10.0.

Update some attributes of an elastic agent profile.

Note: The update elastic agent profile API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current elastic agent resource.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the elastic agent config, leading to a conflict.

Available since v19.3.0.

HTTP Request

PUT /go/api/elastic/profiles/:profile_id

Returns

The updated elastic agent profile object.

Updates plugin settings for the specified plugin id.

Note: The update plugin settings API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current plugin settings resource.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the plugin settings resource, leading to a conflict.

Update config repos for specified config repo id.

Note: The update config repo API requires that you submit the If-Match header with the latest ETag value that is representative of the current config repo config resource.

This is required in order to avoid the “lost update” problem, where a client `GET`s a resource’s state, modifies it and `PUT`s it back to the server, while another user has modified the state of the config repo config, leading to a conflict.

Available since v17.12.0.

HTTP Request

PUT /go/api/admin/config_repos/:id

Returns

The updated config-repo object
