Disable auto update on installation

Hi team, I am trying to figure out an automated way to disable auto update feature while installing Burp enterprise. Is there an api to do that or some flag we can turn on or off just after installation ?

This is possible, but not natively to the installer or any supported workflow. You would need to send a POST request to "/api-internal/updates/configuration" with the correct content. An example is below. {"restricted":true,"confirm_enterprise":true,"confirm_scanner":true,"days":["MONDAY","TUESDAY","WEDNESDAY","THURSDAY","FRIDAY","SATURDAY","SUNDAY"],"start_time":"02:00:00","end_time":"04:00:00"} This POST request would require an Authorization header in the same way a request to the GraphQL endpoint would. Additionally, the api-internal is subject to change and making requests to this is not directly supported. So this could break in the future.
