Application Name: Dayforce HCM

I am using the veracodeC#API.exe wrapper to upload and scan my code which is already built in Debug and bundled in to Zip. Below are two samples that I can use to upload:

Example 1

-----------

$appname = "Dayforce HCM"

$command = $PSScriptRoot, "veracodeC#API.exe" -join "\"

$userid = "my API ID"

$password = "my API Secret Key"

$action ="Uploadandscan"

$toplevel = "true"

$createprofile = "false"

$autoscan = "true"

$final_remote_archive_name = "D:\Veracode\Scans\20191127T1555199329\bindayforcehcm_2019-11-27.zip"

$veracode_scanname = "DFDebugBuild_2019-11-28"

$arguments = "-action=$action -vid=$userid -vkey=$password -appname=$appname -toplevel=$toplevel -createprofile=$createprofile -filepath=$final_remote_archive_name -version=$veracode_scanname -autoscan=$autoscan"

& $command -action $action -vid=($userid.ToString()) -vkey=($password.ToString()) -appname $appname -toplevel $toplevel -createprofile $createprofile -filepath $final_remote_archive_name -version $veracode_scanname -autoscan $autoscan

Using the call operator (&) I am able to upload and submit for a scan but capturing errors using the call operator difficult as $LastErrorCode variable doesn't always gets populated. I therefore tried another way. See below.

Example 2

-----------

$appname = "Dayforce HCM"

$command = $PSScriptRoot, "veracodeC#API.exe" -join "\"

$userid = "my API ID"

$password = "my API Secret Key"

$action ="Uploadandscan"

$toplevel = "true"

$createprofile = "false"

$autoscan = "true"

$final_remote_archive_name = "D:\Veracode\Scans\20191127T1555199329\bindayforcehcm_2019-11-27.zip"

$veracode_scanname = "DFDebugBuild_2019-11-28"

$arguments = "-action=$action -vid=$userid -vkey=$password -appname=$appname -toplevel=$toplevel -createprofile=$createprofile -filepath=$final_remote_archive_name -version=$veracode_scanname -autoscan=$autoscan"

$proc_info = New-Object System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo

$proc_info.FileName = $command

$proc_info.RedirectStandardError = $true

$proc_info.RedirectStandardOutput = $true

$proc_info.UseShellExecute = $false

$proc_info.Arguments = $arguments 

$proc = New-Object System.Diagnostics.Process

$proc.StartInfo = $proc_info

$proc.Start() | Out-Null

$proc.WaitForExit()

$stdout = $proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd()

$stderr = $proc.StandardError.ReadToEnd()

Write-Host "stdout: $stdout"

Write-Host "stderr: $stderr"

Write-Host "exit code: " + $proc.ExitCode

When I run this code the white space in $appname gets ignored.

This is is the output:

stdout:

stderr: [19.11.29 15:40:29]

[19.11.29 15:40:29] An app_id could not be located for application profile "Dayforce".

exit code: + 2

Note that the white space and the second part of the name is completely ignored.

If I change the name of the application on the Veracode portal to get rid of the whitespace everything works fine but this is

an unacceptable solution. I would appreciate anyone's ideas and help.

Thank you.
