How to get credentials

The agent authenticates with HTTP Basic auth using your Jenkins username and a personal API token (not your password).

1. Open the Jenkins remote access API docs for reference.
2. In Jenkins, click your name (top right) and choose Configure.
3. Under API Token, click Add new Token, give it a name (e.g. FlyMyAI Agent) and Generate.
4. Copy the generated token - it is shown only once.
5. Note your Jenkins base URL (e.g. https://ci.example.com) and your login username.

Fields to fill in FlyMyAI

FlyMyAI field	Where it comes from
JENKINS_BASE_URL	Root URL of your Jenkins controller, e.g. https://ci.example.com
JENKINS_USERNAME	Your Jenkins login username
JENKINS_API_KEY	User → Configure → API Token → Add new Token

Troubleshooting

• 403 No valid crumb - CSRF protection is on; the write actions fetch a crumb automatically, so confirm the token user has permission to read crumbIssuer.
• 401 / 403 - wrong username or token, or the user lacks the job/build permission. Use an API token, never your account password.
• 404 - check the job path; nested jobs use folder paths like team/backend/deploy.
