build investigation feature is hidden

Hi,

I just stumbled onto an issue.

I was wondering why the build investigation feature was not showing up, although I added my credentials for the jenkins build server.

It turns out that the feature only works when you provide base url for the jenkins server:

i.e https://www.jenkins.com

if you provide a link to a filtered view like

https://www.jenkins/view/myview

the jobs will show show up in catlight, like they are specified in the jenkins view, but the build investigation feature will not work.

This is not a big problem and can be avoided easily. But I thought you might want to know.

Thanks for reporting this!

CatLight currently does not explicitly support monitoring separate Jenkins views. This works mostly by accident, as Jenkins root API and view API are very similar. But, view API does not return information about the current user, and that is why build investigations are unavailable.
