Workflows

Automate release and operational scans with policy-driven workflows, clear lifecycle states and dedupe-safe execution.

What this solves

Eliminates manual scan orchestration and gives teams reliable, repeatable execution across scheduled and CI-triggered paths.

Who is this for

  • QA leads orchestrating recurring scan operations
  • Engineering teams integrating checks into CI pipelines
  • Enterprise admins controlling queue policy and execution safety

Prerequisites

  • URL tags and run scope taxonomy defined
  • Execution windows and trigger policy agreed
  • Queue ownership and fallback procedures documented

Step-by-step

1. Define workflow target sets

Map URL tags to release-critical paths and recurring quality checks.

2. Attach schedule and CI triggers

Use cron and webhook trigger modes according to release process and risk profile.

3. Monitor batch lifecycle

Track running, completed, partial failure and cancelled outcomes with explicit owner actions.

4. Harden execution policy

Enable dedupe and queue safeguards to prevent burst overload and duplicate work.

Operational outputs

  • Batch run lifecycle timeline with status details
  • Queue-aware execution metrics and dedupe outcomes
  • Trigger audit trail for scheduled and CI-driven runs

Plan availability

  • Workflow orchestration is available in Pro and Enterprise
  • Enterprise adds stronger policy controls for scale and burst handling
  • Quota and concurrency envelopes are governed by plan tier

Limits and guardrails

  • Do not over-subscribe concurrent heavy runs without queue policy tuning
  • Keep trigger contracts idempotent to avoid duplicate executions
  • Use partial-failure handling rules before enabling broad automation

Expected outcome

  • Scan operations become predictable across release cycles
  • Operational overhead drops through automation and dedupe
  • Incident response accelerates with clear lifecycle visibility

Troubleshooting paths

  • If batch runs stall, inspect queue lag and worker health
  • If partial failures repeat, isolate affected target tags and retry policy
  • If CI trigger misses occur, validate webhook auth and payload contract
