Configure a Pipeline Scan with the REST API

Send the following request to configure a Pipeline Scan:

http --auth-type=veracode_hmac POST "https://api.veracode.com/pipeline_scan/v1/scans" < input.json

The API passes the JSON file that you populate with the necessary values as shown in this example payload:

{
  "binary_name": "verademo.war",
  "binary_size": 6577398,
  "binary_hash": "48c96bf1ff8b47316683c99376b67b455f0e4a2d9705323fa3bcbe71afe350c7",
  "project_name": "verademo",
  "project_uri": "https://github.com/veracode/verademo", 
  "dev_stage": "DEVELOPMENT"
}   

The Pipeline Scan requires binary_name, binary_size, and binary_hash.

Property descriptions are available in the Pipeline Scan API specification.
