Comment on findings with the REST API

Veracode does not include comments in scan reports, so your comments are private to you and your team.

You can consider comments as a private working area while you and your team remediate findings (flaws). You can use the Applications API to get the GUID for an application.

Send the following request to add a comment to an application with two findings:

http --auth-type=veracode_hmac POST "https://api.veracode.com/appsec/v2/applications/{application_guid}/annotations" < input.json

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

{
"issue_list": "1,2",
"comment": "This is my comment",
"action": "COMMENT"
}
