Hi

I have created Java Maven pipeline using YAML.

Wherein i am using Nexus IQ Extension 1.2.1 for Nexus IQ Policy Evaluation

below is the Task in my pipeline -

_- task: SonatypeIntegrations.nexus-iq-azure-extension.nexus-iq-azure-pipeline-ask.NexusIqPipelineTask@1  
displayName: ‘Nexus IQ Policy Evaluation’  
inputs:  
nexusIqService: $(Serviceconnection.Nexus.IQ.Name)  
applicationId: $(appname\_nexus\_lc)  
scanTargets: '\*\*/_.jar, \*\*/_.war, \*\*/_.ear, \*\*/\*.tar.gz’

Nexus IQ is unable to scan targets in the Azure DevOps -\> Java Build Pipeline.

I have also tried with giving scan targets as below-

scanTargets : ‘$(Build.ArtifactsStagingDirectory)/\*\*/\*.war’’

Also with hard coded values scanTargets is unable to scan the Artifacts.

any ideas.
