How to get the JobID from Deadline using a Python script

Is there any way to get the Job Id from Deadline. I am scripting the process of submitting a job from Maya to Deadline without using the GUI. I need the JobId in order to create a folder in the repository to save the Maya Scene File when submitted. Thanks

If you are submitting via deadlinecommand.exe, it has an output that contains all the job IDs. The lines can be split by \r\n, and every line containing an ID will start with JobID=.

Here's an example output from submitting two jobs at the same time:

Deadline Command 9.0 [v9.0.8.4 Release]

Submitting to Repository: \\<company server>\repo

Submission Contains No Auxiliary Files.

Result=Success
JobID=5beebe64afcefe068846e319

The job was submitted successfully, but there were some warnings:
- Invalid characters removed from "LimitGroups" value.


Deadline Command 9.0 [v9.0.8.4 Release]

Submitting to Repository: \\<company server>\repo

Submission Contains No Auxiliary Files.

Result=Success
JobID=5beebe65afcefe068846e31c

The job was submitted successfully, but there were some warnings:
- Invalid characters removed from "LimitGroups" value.
