How to retrieving Spring-batch jobs history from other application?

Question

I want to create a UI in my application for calling spring-batch(which is running separately) jobs and showing job details like history etc in that UI. You can call the jobs of spring-batch from other application using REST. Can we also retrieve the other information(history etc) of the jobs similarly?
