Schedule Scan

Automates the process of scheduling Managed Services Platform assessments.

These are the possible types of scan: Web, Mobile, Network Security Testing (NST), and SAST (SAST performs static analysis on source code).

With Schedule Scan you can do the following:

• Schedule a Web, Mobile App, or Source-Code (SAST) scan
• Schedule a revalidation scan

As you might know from using the Web interface, scheduling an assessment requires you to specify a great deal of information. This chapter lists that information in the form you need to use when scheduling tests automatically, perhaps as part of your build process.

Note: In order to be concise, the parameter descriptions in this chapter are fairly brief. For more detail about a particular parameter, please refer to the Managed Services Platform Guide.

With the Update Scan request, you can update the information provided when you initially scheduled the scan.
