Thanks a lot for this interesting article!
I have tried to configure Zap in jenkins by following the same steps, but i have a error that i could not fix!
It is :
[ZAP Jenkins Plugin] PLUGIN VALIDATION (PLG), VARIABLE VALIDATION AND ENVIRONMENT INJECTOR EXPANSION (EXP)
ERROR: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ZAP INSTALLATION DIRECTORY IS MISSING, PROVIDED [ null ]

Are you sure the installation directory variable is set on your system?

Could you do echo $NAME_OF_YOUR_INSTALLATION_DIR_VAR and see if it is correctly set?

Hi, thank you for your answer.

Yes, i added the variable (ZAP Installation Directory) in the PATH (system variable) and still have the same probleme.

However, i fixed it by setting the environment variable in the jenkins configuration (name & value under manage jenkins-> Global setting) and it works finally!
