v2.0.x Extender API iScanQueueItem.getPercentageComplete() does not work

Luca | Last updated: Nov 16, 2018 10:16PM UTC

While testing https://github.com/vmware/burp-rest-api/, we realized that there is a bug in the Burp Extender API iScanQueueItem.getPercentageComplete() for Burp Professional v2.x (beta). We have verified the problem with both 2.0.11 and 2.0.12. getPercentageComplete() always returns 0 - instead of the correct percentage. Please see https://github.com/vmware/burp-rest-api/issues/80 for the original bug.

Luca, we removed this functionality as it is no longer used by the Burp UI. We're likely to deprecate the feature unless you have a specific use case that requires it?

Burp User | Last updated: Nov 22, 2018 10:05AM UTC

The use case for me is the ability to have a REST API that is independent from the internal (currently limited) API exposed by Burp - see https://github.com/vmware/burp-rest-api I would expect the Extender APIs of Burp Suite v2 to be at least compatible with previous versions. This is probably breaking other extensions too.

Luca, we appreciate your point. We're just curious as to whether you have a specific use case that we could help facilitate? The new API does provide metrics of the whole scan.

Is there a Javadoc of the new Extender API somewhere online? The use case is the ability to check the scan status using our custom Rest API

You can browse the API documentation at [Service URL]/[API key]. - https://portswigger.net/blog/burps-new-rest-api

I am talking about the ***Extender API*** https://portswigger.net/burp/extender/api/index.html Is there a Javadoc of the new Extender API since it's not 100% compatible with previous versions?
