We've job to run concurrent jobs in parallel using Jenkins MultiJob plugin . We are using Description Setter plugin to update the description for failed jobs in all downstream and upstream jobs. How can I update the description of Upstream job with reason of failure in the downstream job.

enter image description here

Is there any way to get the Description from downstream job to Upstream job using a plugin or a groovy script? Can somebody help me.

There is a description URL for each of your jobs. You could have your downstream jobs POST form data with a "description" parameter to set the description.

I found this info under (jenkins server)/job/(job)/api/

Fetch/Update job description
