Save Scan Report Wizard Defaults in Project Settings

Jake | Last updated: Mar 28, 2018 06:51PM UTC

Hello! We use Burp Suite with the Carbonator extension to scan our site automatically during regression testing with Selenium. Being able to run the scanner and create reports using Burp Extender is very useful, but the reports generated use the default settings from the report wizard. It would be incredibly helpful to either be able to save a new set of default settings inside the project settings json file, or have access to the report options using the API. Any thoughts on whether either of these features will be implemented in the future? Thanks!

Hi Jake, Thanks for suggesting this. I agree, that would be a useful feature. We've had an initial discussion about this here. A bit split on whether to persist the settings on that wizard, which would be a quick fix, but potentially cause some inconsistency. Or to add options to the API call, which is probably the better solution. We will try to incorporate your use case. However, the developers have a number of other things in the pipeline at the moment, so it will probably be a little while until we get to this. Thanks again for the suggestion.
