Hello, is it possible to trigger “Scan Multibranch Pipeline Now” for a Jenkins Multbranch Pipeline using jenkins-cli.jar?

If yes, how?

Probably possible using the Jenkins command line. I trigger scans of multibranch Pipeline jobs with a curl command that submits a POST to the URL.

          git grep -l -F org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.multibranch.WorkflowMultiBranchProject -- $directory | sed -e 's,^ref,,g' -e 's,/jobs/,/job/,g' -e 's,/config.xml$,,g' | shuf | while read multibranch_pipeline
          do
                  scan_delay=$((scan_delay+23))
                  url_encoded_multibranch_pipeline=$(python3 -c "import urllib.parse, sys; print(urllib.parse.quote(sys.argv[1]))"  "$multibranch_pipeline")
                  # echo
                  # echo $multibranch_pipeline to $url_encoded_multibranch_pipeline
                  # echo http://localhost:8080$url_encoded_multibranch_pipeline?delay=0
                  echo curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080$url_encoded_multibranch_pipeline/build?delay=${scan_delay}sec"
                  curl -X POST --user $JENKINS_USERNAME:$JENKINS_APITOKEN "http://localhost:8080$url_encoded_multibranch_pipeline/build?delay=${scan_delay}sec"
                  # exit 0
          done
