  +1 this is a blocker for moving from 1.6 to 2.x series for us. The issue exists in both: 2.3 and 2.4 (jenkins:latest and jenkinsci/jenkins on Docker Hub).
  
  Is there a workaround? mawinter69

  Yep, it seems to be a valid regression for this API. Explicit JENKINS-9264 fix would be really nice

  I agree this is a regression however adding a job to a view programmatically was not documented (at least in the embedded documentation).
  
  If you check out <jenkins url>/api/, you'll see a Create Job section, which you don't see if you go to <jenkins url>/view/<somelistview>/api/.
  
  A workaround is to add the job without using the view, then use the view API <jenkins url>/view/<somelistview>/addJobToView to add it to the view.
  
  

I agree this is a regression however adding a job to a view programmatically was not documented (at least in the embedded documentation).

If you check out /api/, you'll see a Create Job section, which you don't see if you go to /view//api/.

A workaround is to add the job without using the view, then use the view API /view//addJobToView to add it to the view.
