Burp Professional REST API same url does not fetch result

smoskov | Last updated: Dec 17, 2020 05:56PM UTC

Hello Burp, During working with Burp Professional REST API I have next issue: When I POST /scan twice with the same url I didn't get scan results for the second scan via GET /scan/[task_id] it works only for the first scan For example: scan#1: POST /scan whatever.url (task #1 created) scan#1: GET /scan/1 => response with results from task#1 scan#2. POST /scan whatever.url (task #2 created) scan#2: GET /scan/2 => response is empty is this intentional or maybe there is a configuration that I can use to get response every time Thanks

Hi, This is expected behavior based on how issue aggregation works in Burp Professional. You will need to close and reopen Burp in a new project file to retrieve the results again. If you scan the same URL more than once, only new issues will be reported.
