Create a Dynamic Analysis with User Agent and Blocklist Using the REST API

You can use the Dynamic Analysis API to create an analysis that scans multiple URLs, applies a user agent, and blocklists specific URLs.

If you want to specify a custom header, the type field must be CUSTOM. If you use a predefined agent, such as Internet Explorer 11, you cannot include a custom_header field.

Enter values for the scan_config_request, scan_setting, blacklist_configuration, org_info, visibility, and user_agent properties in the JSON file.

Run this command:

http --auth-type=veracode_hmac POST "https://api.veracode.com/was/configservice/v1/analyses" < input.json

This is an example of a Dynamic Analysis of multiple URLs. This analysis specifies the user agent string and the URLs to exclude from both the analysis and the URL scan.

Note: The URLs that you blocklist at the URL-specific level take precedence over the URLs in this blocklist. For example, if you blocklist a URL in your URL configuration, but not in the configuration of the whole Dynamic Analysis, the URL configuration blocklist determines which URLs to exclude from the scan.
