TeamCity: How to get the last build metadata for each build type using the REST API

Right now to get a list of the last build for each build type I have to:

  • Get all the build types through this endpoint: /guestAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/
  • Get the last build metadata for each buildType: /guestAuth/app/rest/buildTypes/id:BUILD_TYPE_ID/builds/?locator=lookupLimit:1

This is very inefficient as I have to make as many requests as there are buildTypes.

The REST API does not allow to specify more than one BUILD_TYPE_ID per request to the endpoint.

Is there a way to aggregate this requests? Is it possible to get the last build metadata for each buildType in one go?

I am using TeamCity 8.1.

I'm not sure about getting ALL your builds in one script but you can certainly get the last successful build for each build .. wget.exe http://teamcity.domain.com/httpAuth/repository/downloadAll/btx/.lastFinished/ --user=<user> --password=<password> --output-document=artifacts.7z - wal
@wal To clarify, I don't want to get the artifact, I want to get the build metadata from the REST API. - Marco Bettiolo

Try this:

http://teamcity.jetbrains.com/app/rest/buildTypes?locator=affectedProject:(id:TeamCityPluginsByJetBrains)&fields=buildType(id,name,builds($locator(running:false,canceled:false,count:1),build(number,status,statusText)))
