REST API - Crawl Only

Gary | Last updated: Dec 08, 2018 05:03PM UTC

Hi Burp Team, I would like two additional REST API endpoints that support crawl only functionality, mirroring the v2 UI. E.g. /crawl and /crawl/<taskid> Are there any plans to release this functionality in the near future? Maybe there is a way to achieve this using the /scan endpoint and a custom scan configuration? Thanks! Gary

You can get almost the same effect by using a scan configuration with all audit checks disabled. We do intend to expand the API in future, although there's no timescale on this at present.
