Can i customize scan configuration before starting

← Back to Scanning FAQ

Yes. For supported scans, you can use Expert Mode before starting a Single Scan.

Expert Mode lets you customize the HTTP request used by the scan, including:

  • HTTP version

  • Request method

  • Target URL

  • Headers

  • Request body

To access Expert Mode:

  • Go to Scan Manager -> Start Scan.

  • Select Single Scan and choose a supported scan tool.

  • Select or create a request.

  • Enable Expert Mode, update the request, and start the scan.

Expert Mode is useful for APIs, authenticated endpoints, and cases where you need precise control over the HTTP layer. It is available only for supported URL-based and HTTP-request-based scans.
