How to Setup an Atlassian API Scan

This lesson will explain how to set up a scan job to scan your Atlassian Cloud application.  The lesson assumes that you have already installed your PAD, set up your IP Ranges, and set up your Credentials.  See the previous lessons in this chapter if you have not done so.

Asset Vision® uses an agentless method of scanning.  Agentless scanning has the profound benefit of being non-disruptive to the configuration of your target systems.  The method we use to perform discovery is based on the creation of scanning jobs that run according to a particular schedule.  The scan jobs implement the various discovery techniques built into Asset Vision®.
