Triggering is not working with Token Credential ID

[raksit31667]

Version report

Jenkins on Docker v2.222 Generic Webhook Plugin v1.72

Reproduction steps

• Add new credentials on Jenkins

• Configure Job on either UI or DSL script, specify tokenCredentialId with the one we have just created.

• Make a HTTP request using

POST https://<jenkins-url>/generic-webhook-trigger/invoke?token=<token-here>

Results

Expected result:

It should return HTTP 200 OK with new job running.

Actual result:

It returns HTTP 404 NOT FOUND without any jobs running.

Additional info

It works if I hardcode token input instead of using tokenCredentialId.

I tried with Jenkins 2.277.4.

Created a secret text credential with id theid.

Pipeline:

 properties([
  pipelineTriggers([
   [$class: 'GenericTrigger',
    genericVariables: [
     [
      key: 'href',
      value: '$.href'
     ]
    ],

    causeString: 'Triggered on $ref',

    tokenCredentialId: 'theid',

    printContributedVariables: true,
    printPostContent: true,

    silentResponse: false
   ]
  ])
 ])

Trigger with Curl:

curl -vs http://localhost:8080/jenkins/generic-webhook-trigger/invoke?token=abc123 2>&1

Works for me.

Note that you have to run a pipeline once, to apply the properties to the job. So you can verify what has been applied by inspecting the job. In my case I can see:

Hi @tomasbjerre, thank you for your support.

You are right, I missed the part where I needed to run a pipeline once as documented here.
