    The Remote Access API page mentions that you an create/copy job with it.

    Remote access API is offered in a REST-like style.
    That is, there is no single entry point for all features, and instead they are available under the “.../api/” URL where “...” portion is the data that it acts on.

    For example, if your Hudson installation sits at http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/, http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/api/ will give you HTML lists of all available functionality that act on the Hudson root.

    On my Hudson, the /api address gives:

    Create Job

    To create a new job, post config.xml to this URL with query parameter name=JOBNAME.
    You’ll get 200 status code if the creation is successful, or 4xx/5xx code if it fails.
    config.xml is the format Hudson uses to store the project in the file system, so you can see examples of them in /server/path/to/your/hudson/home.
