Ansible Tower REST API: Is there any way to get the logs/output of a job?

I have a Ansible job started by another Process. Now I need to check the status of the current running job in Ansible Tower.

I am able to track the status whether it is running/success/failed/canceled with /jobs/{id} using REST API.

But I would also need the information of the console logs/ouputs of the task for processing as well. Is there any direct API call for the same?

You can access the job log via a link similar to:

https://tower.yourcompany.com/api/v1/jobs/12345/stdout?format=txt_download

Your curl command would be similar to: curl -O -k -J -L -u ${username):${password} https://tower.company.com/api/v1/jobs/${jobnumber}/stdout?format=txt_download

obviously replacing ${username}, ${password}, and ${jobnumber} with your own values

The curl flags used:

• -O : output the filename that is actually downloaded
• -k : insecure SSL (don't require trusted CAs)
• -J : content header for file download https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#-J
• -L : follow redirects
• -u : username and password
