Curl command to generate App Embedded Defender zip file for Deployment Type, Dockerfile

[TommyHunt]

Given that I want to automate the generation of App Embedded Defender zip file

And there exists a CWPP API documented here, https://prisma.pan.dev/api/cloud/cwpp/defenders#operation/post-defenders-app-embedded

When I attempt to use the example command with my local Dockerfile

curl -k \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $token" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/text' \
-X POST \
--data-binary "$(< Dockerfile)" \
--output Dockerfile.zip \
'https://us-east1.cloud.twistlock.com/secret/api/v22.06/defenders/app-embedded?consoleaddr=us-east1.cloud.twistlock.com&appID=my-test'

Then the API returns this error

{"err":"failed to unmarshal: invalid character 'F' looking for beginning of value"}

Can anyone provide an example curl command that takes a Dockerfile as input and generates the app-embedded zip file?

so customers shouldn't be using that API directly.

Use“twistcli app-embedded embed” command.

See the documentation here... https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/prisma/prisma-cloud/prisma-cloud-admin-compute/tools/twistcli
