CI/CD tools

Identify the CI/CD tools used in your software development environment.

Endor Labs automatically discovers and identifies the CI/CD tools used in your organization based on your source code and source code management system configuration, giving you insight into your software development environment posture.

Scan for CI/CD tools

If you are using the Github App, CI/CD tools discovery is automatic. If you want to scan a particular repository for CI/CD tools, make sure that you are authenticated and then run the command:

endorctl scan --path=/path/to/your/repo --tools

Note: To include GitHub application data you must also set the --github flag and provide a GitHub token with read:org access.
