 This is considered the important thing to be known for the developers who are working on the Jenkins and will be useful in most cases.

We will encounter some issues where some changes will not work as expected in that case if you were asked to downgrade the Jenkins plugin in order to make compatible to work with the Jenkins CI/CD.

Follow the below steps.

1.Navigate to https://plugins.jenkins.io/

2.Search the Plugin you need to search in the search box.

3. In My case Jackson 2 API

4. Select the corresponding plugins and click the archives. 

5. Select the version to which you need to downgrade to and download the hip file.

6. Navigate to Dashborad> Manage Plugins > Manage Plugins >Advance and select Choose File with the hip file download and Upload the plugin.

7. Here Select the Restart the Jenkins box. This will automatically be selected and gets downgraded after the restart.

8 In case if this does not happen then we need to Navigate to Dashboard > Manage Plugins > Manag Plugins > Installed and select the downgrade option.
