How do I perform API scanning?

Nicholas | Last updated: Mar 05, 2024 03:41PM UTC

I have a Backend REST API application that I want to scan. I am following the steps in https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/automated-scanning/api-scans. It says "To run an API scan, click New scan > API scan on the Dashboard." When I click on "New scan" on the dashboard, I do not see the "API scan" option at all. I only see "Scan Details", "Scan Type", "URLs to Scan", "Protocol settings", "Advanced scan parameters".
