How can I make Jenkins not ask for re-login when there is a change from HTTPS to HTTP?

Question

My Jenkins instance is on HTTPS.

One of the plugins creates a link which is on HTTP.

So, whenever I click that link (frequently accessed link), Jenkins asks me to re-login which is counter-productive.

How can I tell Jenkins to relax this check and let me access that HTTP link without needing to re-login?

Answer 1

Please change the JENKINS_URL to https URL of you Jenkins i.e. under Manage Jenkins > Global Configuration. The plugin should give you an https URL now.
