Is there some ways to create audit with some configuration by extender?

Hello: I'm developing my extender and I want to start a audit or crawler task by extender by montoya api.I notice that there some api like burp.api.montoya.scanner.Scanner#startAudit, and I can use it creat a new audit.But I can't set the configration when I create it, i'd like to to this: startAudit(AuditConfiguration.auditConfiguration("Audit checks - extensions only")) or startAudit(AuditConfiguration.auditConfiguration("Some other configuration I saved in the configuration libray")) and I also notic that there is a rest api like http://127.0.0.1:1337/v0.1/scan can create scan task by configration name.But the scan task it created include the crawl task and audit task, I don't need the crawl task. Is there some to create a audit task with the configuration without gui interaction?

Hi.

Currently, it is not possible to specify a custom configuration with your audit. You can only use the defaults for active or passive scanning.

You can find an example of how to create an Audit here:
Audit audit = api.scanner().startAudit(AuditConfiguration.auditConfiguration(BuiltInAuditConfiguration.LEGACY_ACTIVE_AUDIT_CHECKS));

An extension-generated audit task is not quite the same as a live task. However, you could register an HttpHandler or ProxyHandler that adds requests to the configured Audit as they pass through.

For example:
Audit audit = api.scanner().startAudit(AuditConfiguration.auditConfiguration(BuiltInAuditConfiguration.LEGACY_ACTIVE_AUDIT_CHECKS));

api.proxy().registerRequestHandler(new ProxyRequestHandler()
{
    @Override
    public ProxyRequestReceivedAction handleRequestReceived(InterceptedRequest interceptedRequest)
    {
        return ProxyRequestReceivedAction.continueWith(interceptedRequest);
    }

    @Override
    public ProxyRequestToBeSentAction handleRequestToBeSent(InterceptedRequest interceptedRequest)
    {
        audit.addRequest(interceptedRequest);
        return ProxyRequestToBeSentAction.continueWith(interceptedRequest);
    }
});
