Jenkins Disable CLI over Remoting via a Groovy Script

Question

Is is possible to disable Jenkins CLI over Remoting option via Groovy script? I want to put the script into init.groovy.d so that is option is disabled upon start up so I am not prompted to disable it

you can do it like this (jenkins2.60.2)

import jenkins.model.Jenkins

jenkins.model.Jenkins.instance.getDescriptor("jenkins.CLI").get().setEnabled(false)

if you want to save it in a file add: Jenkins.instance.save() – juhnz Aug 04 '17 at 10:43

Create the file $JENKINS_HOME/jenkins.CLI.xml with the following content:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jenkins.CLI>
  <enabled>false</enabled>
</jenkins.CLI>

It will behave as if you pressed the "Disable Jenkins CLI over Remoting" button in the Jenkins GUI once the server restarts.

juhnz's answer covers disabling the CLI completely. However, I believe the intent of the question was just disable the Jenkins CLI over remoting, only, but otherwise enable the CLI.
