Crumbs are session-specific since 2.176.2:
https://www.jenkins.io/doc/upgrade-guide/2.176/#upgrading-to-jenkins-lts-2-176-2

Either use an API token, or record the `Set-Cookie` response header and it
the same session ID with every subsequent request.

The reason for the HTTP 500 is something the logs on Jenkins should tell
you. My guess is you forgot to set `Content-Type: text/xml` as documented
in `/job/whatever/api/`.

if you want to manage your jobs using the API are some tools that make that 
work Jenkin Job Builder 
, also you can 
manage your Jobs and configuration using Jenkins configuration as Code 

 
and JobDSL plugin

How to create/update Jenkins job via REST API in Java?

[Jon Brohauge]

Hi everyone,



I’m trying to create/update a Jenkins job via the REST API. I can
successfully retrieve a crumb, so I know that my username/password
combination works.

Whenever I try to POST a job, using a Basic Authentication with the
“username:password” base64 encoded, I get a 403.

Whenever I try to POST a job, using a Basic Authentication with the
“username:apitoken” base64 encoded, I get a 500. The apitoken has been
handmade just for this test.



I have tried to use the example posted in Cloudbees Support (
https://support.cloudbees.com/hc/en-us/articles/226835367-How-to-update-job-config-files-using-the-REST-API-and-Java-
)

The project source files are located here:
https://github.com/Topdanmark/jenkins-job-rest-api



The username, password, and server have been redacted for obvious reasons.



Any pointers are appreciated. A quick heads up. The project must be able to
run on Java8 on Windows, due to legacy requirements.


Regards,

Jon Brohauge
