How to get the number of jobs in build result page?

Question

A follow up on my previous questions How to use ADO Rest API to get the list of test run in a specific build.

I use Runs - Query api to get runs of my build:

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/test/runs?minLastUpdatedDate={minLastUpdatedDate}&maxLastUpdatedDate={maxLastUpdatedDate}&buildIds={buildIds}&api-version=6.0

But I see that the count value in the JSON body does not match with the # of job I see in the build result page, i.e. https://{my org}.visualstudio.com/{my project}/_build/results?buildId={my build id}&view=results

From the build result page, I only have 5 jobs. Can you please help me in how to get the # of job in the build result page?

Moreover, each job has a log. How to get the log id of each job so that I can use this api https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/build/builds/get%20build%20log?view=azure-devops-rest-6.1

The #number in the Build Result Page is the Build Number of the Build Pipeline.

To Get this number, you could use the Rest API: Builds - Get

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/build/builds/{buildId}?api-version=6.1-preview.6

Then you could Check the buildNumber field in the Response.

How to get the log id of each job so that I can use this api https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/build/builds/get%20build%20log?view=azure-devops-rest-6.1

To Get the LogId for each job, you need to use this Rest API: Timeline - Get

GET https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/build/builds/{buildId}/timeline?api-version=4.1

Note: If you do not enter a specific timelineid, you will get the timeline of the entire build

Then you can find the corresponding logid based on the job name(e.g. Agent Job 1) or identifier Name(e.g. Job_2,Job_1)
