Powershell Update plugins by Jira API UPM

MINOTTE Didier

Hello to all,

I'm creating an application under powershell to update the jira plugins.

I was able to retrieve the list of plugins installed on our site and compare with the versions available on the atlassian marketplace without too much trouble.

I'm stuck mainly on sending the plugin file to jira through the UPM rest API, the request is sent to jira but I must be missing information because the UPM log returns "Failed to install app plugin_8212726077636355451_groovyrunner-6.50.0.jar"

test code for upload :


$AuthString = "{0}:{1}" -f 'name', 'password'
$AuthBytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::Ascii.GetBytes($AuthString)
$BasicCreds = [Convert]::ToBase64String($AuthBytes)
$UMPTokens = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://XXXXXXX/rest/plugins/1.0/?os_authType=basic" -Method Head -Headers @{"Authorization" = "Basic $BasicCreds" }
$filePath="c:\temp\groovyrunner-6.50.0.jar"

$fileBin = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes($filePath)
$boundary = [System.Guid]::NewGuid().ToString()
$LF = "`r`n"
$bodyLines = (
"--$boundary",
"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=`"plugin`"; filename=`"groovyrunner-6.50.0.jar`"",
"Content-Type: application/octet-stream$LF",
$filepath,
"--$boundary--$LF"
) -join $LF

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://XXXXXXX/rest/plugins/1.0/?token=$($UMPTokens.Headers.'upm-token')" -Method Post -ContentType "multipart/form-data; boundary=`"$boundary`"" -Body $bodyLines -Headers @{"Authorization" = "Basic $BasicCreds" }

Thanking you in advance for any help you can provide

Hello,

I solved my problem by rewriting my code, especially the Body part
Here is the code if it can be useful to other people who want to use Powershell to run Jira :

$file = "C:\temp\$name"
$enc = [System.Text.Encoding]::GetEncoding("iso-8859-1")
$boundary = [System.Guid]::NewGuid().ToString()
$fileName = Split-Path -Path $file -Leaf
$readFile = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes($file)
$fileEnc = $enc.GetString($readFile)
$bodyLines = @'
--{0}
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="plugin"; filename="{1}"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream

{2}
--{0}--
'@ -f $boundary, $fileName, $fileEnc
$headers = @{
'Authorization' = "Basic $BasicCreds"
}

$parameter = @{
URI = "$server_url/rest/plugins/1.0/?token=$($UMPTokens.Headers.'upm-token')"
Method = "Post"
Body = $bodyLines
Headers = $headers
ContentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary=`"$boundary`""
}

$reponse = Invoke-RestMethod @parameter -ErrorAction Stop

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Does this happen for other apps, or is it just the groovyrunner?

If it is only groovyrunner, then is there more errors following the failure in the log?

MINOTTE Didier

Thanks already for the quick feedback

It's true that I only tried with groovyrunner, I didn't look at the other plugins that I want to update this way '-_- (I'm doing some tests and I'll come back if it's the file that's causing the problem or my method)

For the logs, if you can direct me to which one to look at I'll be happy to have more information about the error I have. For the error I put I look on audit log of manage apps.

Thank you in advance.

MINOTTE Didier

I went back with another plugin and the result is the same even though the powershell console does not return any error message.

I think you'll want to have a look at the application log, in <jira home>/logs/atlassian-jira.log - this should be catching your attempt to install and telling you what is wrong with the upload. If it doesn't log anything, then the problem is going to be the upload.

MINOTTE Didier

Hello Nic,
For the file, it's the right one I was looking at and I don't see anything transcendent in it concerning a possible error when uploading a plugin.

I also think that there is something more to do for the upload to work properly (a forgotten parameter on my part??)

Still, the REST API does return things :

powershell console does not return any error message.
