Jenkins Job Builder - Automatic Pipeline Job

Currently, in Jenkins Job Builder, I can specify downstream jobs through the publishers option like this:

- job-template:
    name: foo-one
    project-type: freestyle
    disabled: false
    ...
    publishers:
      - pipeline:
          project: foo-two

When the foo-one job is created, the downstream connection exists within Jenkins but the Build other projects entry is 'Build other projects (Manual Step)'. How do I indicate through Jenkins Job Builder that the downstream connection to job foo-two needs to be automated?

Try using trigger-parameterized-builds for triggering downstream jobs.

- job-template:
    name: foo-one
    project-type: freestyle
    disabled: false
    ...

    publishers:
      - trigger-parameterized-builds:
          - project: 'foo-two'
            condition: UNSTABLE_OR_BETTER
            fail-on-missing: true

Could not figure out how to resolve the issue using Jenkins Job Builder publisher/pipeline tag. So, ended up:

  1. Configuring the foo-one job within Jenkins to kick off foo-two when foo-one completed successfully
  2. Retrieve the foo-one job's config.xml file through: curl -O http://localhost:8080/job/foo-one/config.xml
  3. Extracted the relevant XML from the config.xml file that controlled the downstream kickoff logic.

  4. Using the Jenkins Job Builder xml and publisher tags:

    - job-template:
    name: foo-one
    project-type: freestyle
    disabled: false
    ...
    publishers:
      - raw:
          xml: |
            <hudson.tasks.BuildTrigger>
              <childProjects>foo-two</childProjects>
              <threshold>
                <name>SUCCESS</name>
                <ordinal>0</ordinal>
                <completeBuild>true</completeBuild>
              </threshold>
            </hudson.tasks.BuildTrigger>
