There are two types of targets:

  • The Web option allows you to run full scans on your web application. This includes Single-Page Applications or Web Applications that interact with APIs.

  • The API Target option allows you to scan standalone APIs without a supporting web application. If you want to assess the security of your API in detail, you should choose this option.

To learn how to add a target, make sure to read this article.
