Jenkins 2.176.2
This is an Improvement ticket to address the following problem:
When the plugin name is wrong, the installNecessaryPlugin REST API silently accepts it.
CRUMB=$(curl $JENKINS_REST_ENDPOINT/crumbIssuer/api/xml?xpath=concat\(//crumbRequestField,%22:%22,//crumb\))
curl -v -L -X POST \
-d "<jenkins><install plugin=\"extended-read-permission@1.0\" /></jenkins>" \
-H "Content-Type: text/xml" \
-H "$CRUMB" \
"http://localhost:8080/pluginManager/installNecessaryPlugins"
This returns:

But in the log we see:
WARNING: No such plugin extended-read-permissions to install
The REST API should return a HTTP code indicating an error. Otherwise, the REST API silently ignores errors and it cannot be automated.
