We support only swagger endpoints for API Scans for now, so if you have any APIs which aren't in swagger, we request you to create a swagger file using those APIs. To run API Scans follow these steps
Login to your CloudDefense Instance and click on “Scan” then “Other”. After this select “API”
We’ll use
https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json for testing here (Remember we need json as output not any html website, there is difference between swagger viewer and swagger json)In App URL you need to provide (Base URL) example -
https://petstore.swagger.io/ In JSON Path provide full URL of JSON - https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.jsonThen click on “Run Scan” and your scan should start. API Scan from CloudDefense CLI guidelines are given below:
a) Install cdefense CLI in your Device using these steps -
