What information are we able to query on a workflow job? Anything regarding a particular build's stage status (succeeded, failed, hasn't reached yet, aborted, etc.)? I see we can interact with the input step using this method, but where can we find what metadata, if anything, can be obtained about our builds?

The REST exported API for builds (…/job/…/…/api/json?tree=…) is not very extensive yet. You can get some information about nodes in the flow graph (steps, and some associated block nodes—the stuff you see in Workflow Steps). It is possible to extract some information about stages from that, albeit not easily. Much more is available from the Java API.

    Did some searching and [this post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10777663/how-to-make-a-jenkins-hudson-job-surveil-some-others-jobs-and-decide-whether-to/10781891#10781891) was helpful in getting me started. Looking through the [Job](http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/Job.html) class, I don't see anything related to stages or workflow. Any pointers you can offer on querying workflow-specific job info? – Neil Nov 10 '15 at 12:49
