Add credentials to Greenlight for Eclipse

After installing Greenlight for Eclipse, you must add your Veracode credentials to the plugin before you can start a scan.

Before you begin:

Ensure you meet the Greenlight prerequisites.

To complete this task:

  1. In Eclipse, select Window > Preferences.

  2. From the left navigation, select Veracode Greenlight > Credentials.

  3. Select an option for storing your API credentials:

    • Store credentials in external file: use the credentials in your API credentials file. By default, if your credentials are not currently stored in your IDE, this option is selected.
    • Store credentials in Eclipse: enter and store your credentials in your IDE. By default, if your credentials are currently stored in your IDE, this option is selected.
  4. If you selected to use an API credentials file, click Test Credentials to verify that your credentials are valid.
