I created a cloudbees account with my Gmail.
I installed Cloudbees Registration plugin in my jenkins and created a new credentials in jenkins using cloudbees account.
After creating, I am seeing CloudBees Status in Jenkins UI (left bottom of the page) as 'Communication status: error'
What am I missing here?

I tried to create destinations for IoT application enablement in SAP full stack web IDE by choosing Tools-> Update IoT Destinations and enter credentials from service binding of SAP Leonardo Service as in the help portal .After entering the credentials and clicking Update, an authentication popup is appeared to enter SAP Cloud Platform Neo environment credentials. But the authentication failed with no error messages when entering the correct credentials as in the figure. I also assigned correct roles for web ide in SCP cockpit.
My neo subaccount is protected by an Identity Authentication Service (IAS) so I had to enter my P-user credentials to update the IoT Destinations.
My requirement is to integrate jenkins with openam, if i put the jenkins URL in the browser it should automatically redirect to openam after providing the credential it should redirect back to jenkins and open the jenkins dashboard.
You can use J2EE Aget if Jenkins is deployed on Tomcat, Jetty or JBoss or ...
Or you can use SAML Plugin for Jenkins. In this case, OpenAM acts as a SAML IdP.

I had installed Jenkins in ubuntu 12.04 and it is running successfully. Other users are trying to login my Jenkins, so, i feel it would be if it get configured with Google apps. let me know the way to configure Jenkins with Google apps.
Setup is really quite easy. First of course need to install the plugin. Once you have done this just go to "Manage Jenkins" and then select "Configure Global Security". Once you are here just select "Google Apps SSO (with OpenID)" under the Security Realm section and then put your google apps domain. Next step profit and of course :)

I had installed Jenkins in Ubuntu machine and making build successfully. I want to have authentication with help of Google apps. I feel it would be better, I searched the plugin respective to this, but i can't find it. whether this can be attained by means of plugin or otherways? Please do let me know the ways to do. Thanks in advance
Now that Google deprecated support for OpenID, you can use Google Login Plugin which works well with Google Apps.
In Jenkins by default user authentication is not enabled but we can establish the user authentication from the Global Security section. We have to create users for team members and it maintains all user in its own database. But we can also configure Jenkins with Google OAuth. So, if you are leveraging Google services and already have users on it. The users can login to Jenkins and perform their task.
To implement Google OAuth we'll recommend jenkinsci/google-login-plugin (https://github.com/jenkinsci/google-login-plugin) this is a Jenkins plugin which lets you login to Jenkins with your Google account. Also allows you to restrict access to accounts in a given Google Apps domain.
I am assuming that we have already installed Jenkins server and have admin right to make changes in it. The whole configuration is divided into three easy steps.
1. Get Google OAuth Credentials
To use this plugin, you must obtain OAuth 2.0 credentials from the Google Developers Console (https://console.developers.google.com). These don't need to belong to a special account, or even one associated with the domain you want to restrict logins to.
Instructions to create the Client ID and Secret:
Login to the Google Developers Console
Create a new project, in the pop-up window specify your project
name it can be any name which is more meaning full to you, eg:
Jenkins OAuth. In this project we will generate authantication
credentials to enable OAuth API.
On the left sidebar under APIs & Services (API Manager) ->
Credentials, Create credentials, OAuth client ID (It will genrate API
credentials and these credentails are required to configure in
Jenkins in last step).
As we are going to integrate this in Jenkins and it is a web
service, the application type should be "Web Application"
Register Jenkins URI from where we allowed to access the Google
APIs. We have to provide Jenkins server detail. You can replace your
JENKINS_ROOT_URL = http:jenkins.mydomain.com with your own Jenkins URI. This will be the landing page of your Jenkins server.
Once you hit this page it will be redirected to google for the
authentication.
The authorized redirect URIs is required to redirect you after
successful login. It is the combination of your Jenkins landing page
and a suffix string to validate you are a logged in user. As we want
to land user to Jenkins dashboard, so it has the same URI which we
mentioned in the previous step and don’t forget to include
securityRealm/finishLogin at the end. So the authorized redirect
URLs should result like this
${JENKINS_ROOT_URL}/securityRealm/finishLogin.
eg: http://jenkins.mydoamin.com/securityRealm/finishLogin
Copy and save Client ID and Client Secret, these credential
will be used to enable Google APIs in Jenkins (Security Realm
Configuration).
2. Install Google Login Plugin
In Jenkins there is no mechanism to configure OAuth but there are many plugins are available and we are using Google Login plugin. We can easily install this plugin from Manage Jenkins –> Manage Plugins –> Available and search for “Google Login”. Select the plugin. There is no need to restart to install this plugin. This plugin allows for the register Google OAuth and performs authentication.
3. Configure Jenkins
In this step, we will setup Google security credentials in installed plugin. Navigate to Manage Jenkins –> Configure Global Security and select Login with Google under Security Realm paste credentials (Client ID and secret) generated in the first step. In the last field do not forget to enter your domain name it allows you to restrict access to given domain name.
Immediately after saving changes Jenkins will allow access to all users in your domain. Now, try to login into your Jenkins it will redirect you to Google Authentication page. If everything is set up properly you will be logged in but just in case you’re still facing any problem go back and check each step. The logged in user can do anything and if you want to restrict users you can implement Role Strategy Plugin (https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Role+Strategy+Plugin) security.
You can achieve Single Sign On with Google Apps using the OpenID Plugin. It's very easy to set up, you basically install the plugin, select "Google Apps SSO (with OpenID)" and enter your domain. Note that users will have to have a google apps account to login after that.
Tip: you might consider using it in combination with the Role Strategy Plugin
I used a command line browser called elinks to sign in to their html mail server http://m.gmail.com.
Use shift in Elinks to copy and paste.

I switched a text message script from one jenkins box to another and had to do this to get Google to let me use that IP.
I have an application that monitors CI jobs, and I've added a jenkins installation to my account. Typically, this application is internal to the company I work at, but our jenkins servers aren't accessible outside the LAN.
To lookup the status of a build, I to a python urllib.urlopen on
http://hostname/job/job_name/lastBuild/api/json
then parse the json result
When trying to connect to https://webiken.ci.cloudbees.com, I get an HTTPError because the URL requires authentication. Is there anyway to configure my jenkins to be public?
Thanks,
Sam
you can use HTTP Basic authentication with your cloudbees credentials to access the API :
curl https://webiken.ci.cloudbees.com/job//api/json --user ndeloof#cloudbees.com:
Also see this wiki page on how to make your Jenkins instance public.
