Configuring Reports

You can configure report contents, output format, and report directory.

Contents

Enable or disable options in the Contents section to include or exclude specific report sections.

Format

Choose a format from the File format drop-down menu. Built-in IDE output formats are available by default, but additional formats can be included by plugging in services that include other formats.

The following formats are available:

• HTML (default)
• PDF
• CSV
• XSL custom
• JSON SARIF (Static Analysis Results Interchange Format)
• JSON SARIF for Azure DevOps
• JSON SAST for GitLab
• XML SATE (Static Analysis Tool Exposition) (see https://samate.nist.gov/SATE4.html for details)
• XML xUnit

• cppUnit

To generate a report by using a custom XSL file that specifies how you want to transform the XML data, configure the following options:

• File extension: specifies the extension of the report you want to generate
• XLS file: specifies the the location of the XSL file

Custom locations

By default, reports are generated in an internal directory, but you can enable the Reports option in the Custom locations section and specify a custom directory for your reports. Click Explore Reports to open the reports directory. 

Sharing Report Configurations

You can create a .properties file that contains report settings. Other users can import this file into their IDEs to quickly configure their reports. See Customizing Settings for instructions on exporting and importing the .properties file.
