Once the analysis is done a Zip file and some .csv log files are generated. Only the ZIP need to be uploaded to the portal, other .csv files are analysis log files and can't be uploaded to the platform.
Details
A .zip file is generated per scan, containing all application analysis results. Depending on the number of distinct technologies and root source folders, the Agent automatically generates one or several result files with the following naming structure: - FolderName.Technology.date.csv
Eg: myappSRC.PHP.05_29_2015_11_17.csv
The following screenshot is an example that shows the .csv result files in the zip file that are uploaded.
Only the ZIP need to be uploaded to the portal, other .csv files are analysis log files (and can't be uploaded to the platform). The Local Agent also generates an analysis log file that allows users to check analysis status for each analyzed source file. This file prepend .csv extension with “ .analysislog ”. These analysis log files should not be uploaded (and will be rejected anyway) by the platform.
If uploading the .zip file do not work for some reason, each .csv result file that need to be uploaded can also be manually uploaded separately but the sequence should be correct. The sequence is normally managed when automatically uploading results. For eg CloudReady result files must be uploaded after the generic technology files. When the ZIP is uploaded this sequence is automatically applied. Analysis log files should be excluded when csv files are manually uploaded. Only result CSV files located in HLTemporary/analysis folder should be uploaded.
Other CSV files (UnknownTechno.csv, PotentialTechnos.csv, technoFound.csv, etc.) are log files and should not be uploaded to the platform.
To know about the csv files that should be uploaded for each use case please refer https://doc.casthighlight.com/CAST-Highlight-CodeScanBestPractices.pdf
NB: Corrupt csv files should not be uploaded. Files with invalid component names such as having null values will not be analysed.

`Only the ZIP need to be uploaded to the portal, other .csv files are analysis log files (and can't be uploaded to the platform).`
in a meantime in the screenshot we see `Drop CSV or ZIP files`
should you change that prompt?
