Workflow descriptions

Orchestration/extraction workflows

This workflow applies to scanner integrations that support orchestratedScan or dataLoad scan modes.

  1. Add a Build or Security stage to your pipeline.

  2. If you're scanning a code repository, set up your codebase.

  3. Add a Custom Scan step.

  4. Review the Important notes for Custom Scan steps for additional requirements and relevant information.

    If you're setting up a scan on a Kubernetes or Docker build infrastructure, you need to add a Docker-in-Docker background step to the stage.

  5. Add the relevant key:value pairs to Settings.

Ingestion workflows

This workflow applies to scanner integrations that support Ingestion mode.

  1. Add a Build or Security stage to your pipeline.

Target and variant

Every Custom Scan step needs a target and baseline.

Target variant

Key
target_variant
Value

A user-defined label for the branch, tag, or other target variant to scan.

Product access

These settings are available to access your Fortify on Demand SaaS instance when policy_type is orchestratedScan or dataLoad.

You should create Harness text secrets for your encrypted passwords and tokens and reference them using the format <+secrets.getValue("my-access-token")>.

Ingestion file

This setting applies to Custom Scan steps when the policy_type is ingestionOnly.

Key
ingestion_file
Value

The path to your scan results when running an Ingestion scan, for example /shared/scan_results/myscan.latest.sarif.

  • The data file must be in a supported format for the scanner.

  • The data file must be accessible to the scan step. It's good practice to save your scan results to a shared path in your stage. In the visual editor, go to the stage where you're running the scan. Then go to Overview > Shared Paths. You can also add the path to the YAML stage definition like this:

        - stage:
    spec:
    sharedPaths:
    - /shared/scan_results

Fail on Severity

If the scan finds any vulnerability with the specified severity level or higher, the pipeline fails automatically. NONE means do not fail on severity.

For more information, go to Stop builds based on scan results.

Key
fail_on_severity
Value
CRITICAL
MEDIUM
LOW
INFO
NONE
