Scenarios for creating scans
These scenarios are targeted at developers and the security team. Choose the user role that most closely matches your situation.
Developers
The developer team creates scan templates using different methods and user interfaces in AppScan.
Creating a scan from a template
Depending on the method your security team uses to create a scan template, you might use the AppScan Dynamic Analysis Client or the AppScan Enterprise user interface to create your scans. These topics describe each task you might need.
Creating a scan using the GraphQL template
GraphQL template can be used to scan the APIs that contain GraphQL queries. Being the initial version of the template, the capabilities are limited to only the APIs with GraphQL queries and not the web applications.

        Depending on the method your security team uses to create a scan template, you might use the AppScan Dynamic Analysis Client or the AppScan Enterprise user interface to create your scans. These topics describe each task you might need.
        Types of scan templates
        These are the available scan templates in AppScan Enterprise. The security team might also create templates that are specific to your organization.
        Creating a scan based on a template using AppScan Standard scan properties
        Create scans that use templates that are based on scan configuration options from AppScan Standard. An easy-to-use wizard (AppScan Dynamic Analysis Client) takes you through the scan configuration options, including action-based login and manual explore features.
        Creating a scan based on a template using AppScan Enterprise scan properties
        A QuickScan crawls your site to discover its content using parameters set in a scan template created by an Administrator. After it is collected by the scan, the data is stored in a database for analysis by the reporting engine and made available to you through report packs, which are collections of reports. Most of your data analysis tasks will focus on the data provided in these reports.
        Creating a scan using the GraphQL template
        GraphQL template can be used to scan the APIs that contain GraphQL queries. Being the initial version of the template, the capabilities are limited to only the APIs with GraphQL queries and not the web applications.

        Create a GraphQL scan by Recording the APIs using the ADAC client using Postman or SoapUI.
        Creating a scan from AppScan Standard using AppScan Connect
        You can import the Postman collection in a scan job using AppScan Standard and then replicate this job in AppScan Enterprise.
      - Editing a scan
        You can edit a basic scan to modify configuration options. If you need help editing your scan or you need more settings added to it, ask your security team to help you. They can edit your scan from an advanced view in the AppScan Dynamic Analysis Client.
      - Creating an import scan
        An import QuickScan uploads AppScan® files using parameters set in a scan template created by a Product Administrator. After the file is uploaded, its data is stored in a database for analysis by the reporting engine and made available to you through report packs, which are collections of reports.
    - Security Team
      Using scan configuration authored in AppScan standard, the security team creates templates.
    - Converting scan configurations from AppScan® Standard in the AppScan® Dynamic Analysis Client
      If you have an existing content scan that is based on a scan template (*.scant) from AppScan® Standard, you can convert the scan configuration so that you can edit it directly in the AppScan Dynamic Analysis Client. However, after you convert the scan configuration, you cannot open it again in AppScan Standard.
  - Running and scheduling jobs
    Learn how to run and schedule a job in AppScan Enterprise.
  - Copying a scan between two Enterprise Consoles
    Export scan properties and creating a new scan based on those properties. This is the method you use to copy a scan between two Enterprise Console instances.
  - Stopping a job and then resuming it
    There are three methods you can use to stop a job while it is running. Each method is used for a different reason, which largely depends on whether you want to keep the data or you want to continue running the job from the point where it left off. You can resume a suspended job to continue the scan from where it stopped. A resumed job is handled by the next free agent on any available agent server.

Adding the APIs using AppScan Enterprise Postman REST API

Create a GraphQL scan by adding the APIs using AppScan Enterprise Postman REST API

Procedure

Create a DAST job using the GraphQL template by using one of the following APIs:
- POST/jobs
- POST/jobs/{templateId}/dastconfig/createjob
- POST/jobs/createjobBasedOnTemplateFile
Add the Postman collection with GraphQL queries using the API: POST/jobs/{jobId}/dastconfig/postman/create

Note:
For more information about adding a collection, see the documentation on the AppScan Enterprise REST APIs Swagger page.
