Set crawl depth

McDanel, | Last updated: Sep 21, 2023 03:38AM UTC

I am using the Burp REST API in headless mode. I want to be able to set the max crawl depth. I am unable to find a usable setting that overrides the default profiles and do not want to edit the json in the jar file. Is there a way to tell Burpsuite REST API (pro) to set this value?

Hi Bret, There is no option to specifically configure this setting via the REST API - you would need to create a scan configuration, with this option set to whatever you wish it to be, and then include that as part of the 'scan_configurations' parameter when initiating your scan via the REST API.
