Learn how to use Jenkins with Filebase.

What is Jenkins?
Jenkins is an open-source automation server platform built on Java that can be used with a wide variety of plugins to automate any server task. It can be downloaded and installed on Windows, Linux, macOS X, or as a Docker or Kubernetes container.
Read below to learn how to configure your Jenkins environment for use with Filebase.
This guide will use a Windows client for configuration, but the steps and parameters will be the same regardless of which installation method you are using.
Prerequisites:
​Download and install Jenkins.
​Download and install Java. Jenkins only supports Java 1.8 or Java 11.
​Sign up for a free Filebase account. 
Have your Filebase Access and Secret Keys. Learn how to view your access keys here.

1. Login to your Jenkins server at http://localhost:8080​
If you haven’t configured your Jenkins server prior, finish the installation by installing the recommended plugins and setting up your admin account.
2. Once logged into the Jenkins home page, select ‘Manage Jenkins’ from the left side bar menu.
