Scan health

The scan health status indicates the execution health of the scan, whether all scanners completed successfully, encountered errors, or are still executing.

Scan health

Description

Completed

All enabled scanners finished execution successfully. The scan results are complete and reflect the full security evaluation of the repository.

Error

The scan failed to complete due to an error. One or more scanners encountered a fatal error that prevented scan completion. Periodic scans with an Error health status can be rescanned.

Partially Completed

The scan completed but one or more scanners failed or were skipped. The scan results are incomplete — some scanner categories may be missing from the issue and finding breakdowns. Periodic scans with a Partially Completed health status can be rescanned.

In Progress

The scan is currently executing. The scan results are not yet available. The scan health transitions to Completed, Error, or Partially Completed when the scan finishes.

Scan status

The scan status applies to CI scans and PR scans only. The scan status indicates the policy evaluation result of the scan, whether the scan passed, failed, or detected issues without triggering a blocking policy.

Note

Periodic scans do not have a scan status. Periodic scans produce issues and findings but do not evaluate blocking policies. The scan health status is the only health indicator for periodic scans.
