[Bug]: JTE libraries plugin does not load libraries without WebUI Apply/Save button

JTE Version

2.5.3

Bug Description

When I programmatically update folder's config.xml with JTE libraries packaged as a plugin, they don't load during job execution.
After that, I open the folder in Web UI and press Apply/Save without changing anything, now library works as expected.
Tried restarting Jenkins controller, it didn't help.

Is there any way to load libraries from plugin programmatically?

Steps to Reproduce

Prerequisite: JTE libraries packaged as a plugin and installed in Jenkins

When I programmatically update folder's config.xml with plugin config libraries, they don't load:

<librarySources>
   <org.boozallen.plugins.jte.init.governance.libs.LibrarySource>
       <libraryProvider class="org.boozallen.plugins.jte.init.governance.libs.PluginLibraryProvider">
           <plugin class="jte.generated.a8a8a19c2afe944718b0dd663d210afc0.LibrarySourcePlugin" plugin="lib@1.0.0" />
           <libraries class="linked-hash-map" />
           <jarLastModified>0</jarLastModified>
       </libraryProvider>
   </org.boozallen.plugins.jte.init.governance.libs.LibrarySource>
</librarySources>

Job log:

[JTE] 2: Library git not found.  
[JTE] java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method)
...

After that, I open the folder in Web UI and press Apply/Save without changing anything, now library works as expected.

replicated behavior by adding an SCM library source to an existing job.

@kirill-a could you describe what you did to 'programmatically update folder's config.xml'?
Did you call an API with the file? if so, include the command line and the file sent
Did you run a script from locahost:8080/script ? if so, include the commands
Did you run a command/script on the jenkins server/container ? if so, include the commands.
Thanks

Hi @kirill-a
If you use jenkins-cli.jar to create the jobs prograamatically from config.xml you need to reload job configuration using reload-configuration option so the job gets is loaded from xml config file
