Resolve Purls

posthttps://app.fossa.com/api/components/resolve-purls

Resolve a list of PURLs to the FOSSA components they identify and return the licensing data FOSSA has for each. PURLs that FOSSA has not analyzed yet are queued for an asynchronous build; poll again to retrieve their licensing once the build resolves. This endpoint accepts push-only tokens in addition to full API tokens.
