Different results Automated Scan vs Manual Active Scan

Artur | Last updated: Jun 10, 2022 04:34PM UTC

I am pretty sure this is some misconfiguration issue but I would like to clarify this. When I do Automated scan with "crawl fast" and "audit maximum" configurations I am not getting same results as when I do "active scan" on a single request via intercept. So the question is: what is Active Scan's configuration and how to configure Automated scanner to use it? Here is the request being send to Active Scan ... I'd imagine Automated scan is capable of triggering the "Action buttons" or I do need to enabled it somehow?
