6. To help you generate Pipeline syntax, in the Pipeline section, click Pipeline Syntax to access the Pipeline Syntax page.

   1. On the Pipeline Syntax page, click the Sample Step drop-down menu under Steps, and select blackduck_detect: Blackduck Detect

      1. Add some Detect properties.

      2. Click Generate Pipeline Script, and you will see a Pipeline Script statement that would call the step with that configuration. You may copy and paste the whole statement into your script, or pick up just the options you care about.

      4. Optionally, select a Custom download strategy option.
