Delete a code scanning analysis from a repository

Deletes a specified code scanning analysis from a repository. For private repositories, you must use an access token with the repo scope. For public repositories, you must use an access token with public_repo scope. GitHub Apps must have the security_events write permission to use this endpoint.

You can delete one analysis at a time. To delete a series of analyses, start with the most recent analysis and work backwards. Conceptually, the process is similar to the undo function in a text editor.

When you list the analyses for a repository, one or more will be identified as deletable in the response:

"deletable": true

An analysis is deletable when it’s the most recent in a set of analyses. Typically, a repository will have multiple sets of analyses for each enabled code scanning tool, where a set is determined by a unique combination of analysis values:

  • ref
  • tool
  • analysis_key
  • environment

If you attempt to delete an analysis that is not the most recent in a set, you’ll get a 400 response with the message:

Analysis specified is not deletable.

The response from a successful DELETE operation provides you with two alternative URLs for deleting the next analysis in the set: next_analysis_url and confirm_delete_url. Use the next_analysis_url URL if you want to avoid accidentally deleting the final analysis in a set. This is a useful option if you want to preserve at least one analysis for the specified tool in your repository. Use the confirm_delete_url URL if you are content to remove all analyses for a tool. When you delete the last analysis in a set, the value of next_analysis_url and confirm_delete_url in the 200 response is null.

As an example of the deletion process, let’s imagine that you added a workflow that configured a particular code scanning tool to analyze the code in a repository. This tool has added 15 analyses: 10 on the default branch, and another 5 on a topic branch. You therefore have two separate sets of analyses for this tool. You’ve now decided that you want to remove all of the analyses for the tool. To do this you must make 15 separate deletion requests. To start, you must find an analysis that’s identified as deletable. Each set of analyses always has one that’s identified as deletable. Having found the deletable analysis for one of the two sets, delete this analysis and then continue deleting the next analysis in the set until they’re all deleted. Then repeat the process for the second set. The procedure therefore consists of a nested loop:

Outer loop:

  • List the analyses for the repository, filtered by tool.

  • Parse this list to find a deletable analysis. If found:

    Inner loop:

    • Delete the identified analysis.
    • Parse the response for the value of confirm_delete_url and, if found, use this in the next iteration.

The above process assumes that you want to remove all trace of the tool’s analyses from the GitHub user interface, for the specified repository, and it therefore uses the confirm_delete_url value. Alternatively, you could use the next_analysis_url value, which would leave the last analysis in each set undeleted to avoid removing a tool’s analysis entirely.

Get a code scanning alert

Gets a single code scanning alert. You must use an access token with the security_events scope to use this endpoint with private repos, the public_repo scope also grants permission to read security events on public repos only. GitHub Apps must have the security_events read permission to use this endpoint.

Deprecation notice: The instances field is deprecated and will, in future, not be included in the response for this endpoint. The example response reflects this change. The same information can now be retrieved via a GET request to the URL specified by instances_url.

The default JSON response contains fields that describe the analysis. This includes the Git reference and commit SHA to which the analysis relates, the datetime of the analysis, the name of the code scanning tool, and the number of alerts.

The rules_count field in the default response give the number of rules that were run in the analysis. For very old analyses this data is not available, and 0 is returned in this field.

If you use the Accept header application/sarif+json, the response contains the analysis data that was uploaded. This is formatted as SARIF version 2.1.0.

Upload an analysis as SARIF data

Uploads SARIF data containing the results of a code scanning analysis to make the results available in a repository. You must use an access token with the security_events scope to use this endpoint for private repositories. You can also use tokens with the public_repo scope for public repositories only. GitHub Apps must have the security_events write permission to use this endpoint.

There are two places where you can upload code scanning results.

You must compress the SARIF-formatted analysis data that you want to upload, using gzip, and then encode it as a Base64 format string. For example:

gzip -c analysis-data.sarif | base64 -w0

SARIF upload supports a maximum of 5000 results per analysis run. Any results over this limit are ignored and any SARIF uploads with more than 25,000 results are rejected. Typically, but not necessarily, a SARIF file contains a single run of a single tool. If a code scanning tool generates too many results, you should update the analysis configuration to run only the most important rules or queries.

The 202 Accepted, response includes an id value. You can use this ID to check the status of the upload by using this for the /sarifs/{sarif_id} endpoint. For more information, see “Get information about a SARIF upload.”
