FAQ

Questions Black Duck (Synopsys) owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I check for critical vulnerabilities in a specific project version?

    Yes! Use the list_vulnerabilities capability with the Project and Version IDs. Your agent will fetch the list of components with known security flaws and their severity levels.

  • 02

    How do I know if my Black Duck scan is finished?

    Simply ask the agent to get_bom_status for the specific project version. It will return the current calculation status, showing if the BOM is 'Up to date' or still processing.

  • 03

    What happens if I trigger API rate limits?

    Black Duck limits connections to 100 requests per 10 seconds or 10,000 per 30 minutes. If you exceed this sustained load protection, you will temporarily receive a HTTP 429 error code restricting your IP for 15 minutes.
