We’ve updated our Project(s) page to improve performance and functionality. This is the primary starting point for assessing and triaging compliance and vulnerability risk.

From the Project(s) page you may see Project Title, Project Attributes, Project Issues, Project Labels, and the time of the last policy scan.

In this article, you learn about filtering and sorting options. As well as, bulk actions you can take to organize projects into teams or release groups

Sort Options

Title

Selecting Title within the Project(s) UI header will sort in ascending or descending

Issues

By default each project displays the total issue count across every available issue type. Issue types:

• Licensing
• Security
• Quality

You may change the Issue sort by selecting Total Issues in the header and choosing your desired issue type

📘

Tip

1. Selecting the header of the same issue type will change the sort from descending to ascending
2. Issue type selection will persist throughout the user's session

Last policy scan

The default sort for the Project(s) page is Last policy scan in descending (newest --> oldest) . You may change the sort direction by selecting the Last policy scan header. This sort describes the last time a policy (issue) scan has been performed on the project.

Last revision analyzed

This sort describes the last time a component analysis has been performed on a new revision of a project. A component analysis is triggered via fossa analyze or quick import of a new commit.

You may change the analysis sort by selecting Last policy scan in the header and choosing your desired analysis sort

Filter Options

You now have the ability to use filters to focus your risk evaluation efforts. Please review the list below for a detailed review of each filter.

Filter Groups

Project attributes

Visibility

Labels

Last policy scan

🚧

Note

"Last policy scan" replaces "Last Updated". Last updated only represented a new project revision submitted for analysis. "Last policy scan" represents both a new project revision or a new policy scan.

For FOSSA Security users a new policy scan across all projects, will always occur after each new FOSSA vulnerability database update to ensure we've detected any new CVE's.

📘

NOTE

You can select Reset all filters to remove existing filters at any time to display all identified issues.

Actions

In this section we will all available actions such as adding to deleting projects, adding to teams or creating release groups.

Bulk Actions
