Documented steps

  1. GET https://circleci.com/api/v2/workflow/{id}/job with header Circle-Token: $CIRCLE_TOKEN. Docs describe this endpoint as 'Returns a sequence of jobs for a workflow.'
  2. Each returned item includes: id (job uuid), job_number, name, status, project_slug, started_at, and dependencies (array of job ids this job depends on).
  3. For job-level metadata by uuid, GET https://circleci.com/api/v2/jobs/{job_id} - per the reference it 'Gets a job's metadata by its unique ID, including its name, job number, type, status, and associated resource IDs.'
  4. Use the 'dependencies' array to reconstruct the workflow's job graph/ordering if needed, rather than assuming list order reflects execution order.
  5. Reference: https://circleci.com/docs/api/v2/index.html#tag/Job
