To run the script, use the following command:

   cd connector-config-automation
   python3 main.py --header <header-line> --csvPath <csv-file-path> --baseUrl <base-url> --username <username> --password <password> --profileUuid <profile-uuid> --connectionUuid <connection-uuid>

The above command will use configuration from created config.json file

If config.json is not provided use the following command line args:

• --csvPath: Path to the CSV file (required).
• --baseUrl: Base apigateway Qualys URL for uploading chunks (required).
• --username: Qualys Username for authentication (optional, if you provide value for envQualysUsernameProperty property we will read it from env).
• --password: Qualys Password for authentication (optional, if you provide value for envQualysPasswordProperty property we will read it from env).
• --connectionUuid: Connection UUID (required, this will be available on connector UI).
• --profileUuid: Profile UUID (required, this will be available on connector UI).
• --envQualysUsernameProperty: Environment variable name for username (optional).
