We recommend in your organization for Scanner detection rules.
Add detection rule YAML files to your new repository. See Writing Detection Rulesfor information on how to write detection rules.
Go to Settings > Integrations on your Scanner instance to connect your GitHub account.
Choose which account to connect to and which repositories the Scanner GitHub App can access. The App will only have read access to code and metadata in the selected repositories.
You will need to be logged into GitHub and have appropriate permissions on the selected repositories in order to complete this process.
If you want to connect multiple accounts, click on Connect again to select another account.
You will be able to configure repositories after connecting to the GitHub App, if you want to give the Scanner App access to more repositories or revoke access to repositories later.
After connecting your GitHub account, go to Detection Rule: GitHub Settings.
On this page, you will see all connected GitHub accounts and sync sources.
To add a new sync source, click Add Repository. Select the repository and branch that you would like to sync from.
A sync will automatically kick off after you add a sync source. Syncs happen every 15 minutes (if there have been new commits since the last attempted sync), or they can be kicked off manually on the Detections page.
Click on the connected repository to check the sync status. On this page, you will see information on the last sync status and the detection rules that were included.
You can also change the branch or update permissions on this page.
If there are no errors or failing tests, the detection rules will be synced and you will see them on the Detections page with a GitHub tag.
If there are any errors or failing tests, the sync does not proceed. You will be able to see which files had errors or failing tests. After fixing the files and checking in the changes, you can wait for a new sync to kickoff or kickoff a sync from the Detections page.
You will be prompted to assign event sinks to each key in this sync source. You can select one or more event sinks to assign to each key (or leave it blank). These keys are defined in the detection rules themselves; see the section for more information.
