How to use TeamCity REST API to get the triggered build's buildId?

Question

I have triggered one custom build by TeamCity REST API:

http://{buildServer}/httpAuth/action.html?add2Queue={buildTypeId}

But this http request hasn't any response message, so I can not know whether this build is running or in build queue.

Does any body know how to get that information by REST API?

Well, you can see the list of supported requests and names of parameters of REST API by using the following URL:

http://{buildServer}/httpAuth/app/rest/application.wadl

TeamCity 7.1 Onwards, you can check the status of the builds by using the following REST URL:

http://{buildServer}//app/rest/builds/buildType:(id:btXXX)/statusIcon

Thanks a lot! I think this API can get status of the build which is already finished, but can not know one build is whether running or in queue. – user1397558 Nov 27 '12 at 06:37
I'm using a build locator with the `builds` action with `?locator=running:any` on the end of the URL to also get running builds, so I suspect this one works the same and you'll be able to use a build locator with `running:any`. – Jonathon Rossi Nov 27 '12 at 11:17

thanks! you are right, this one can get the finished and running build, but the builds in queue still can't get. – user1397558 Feb 26 '14 at 09:22
