# Vulnerability Findings API **(ULTIMATE)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/19029) in GitLab 12.5.
NOTE:
This API resource is renamed from Vulnerabilities to Vulnerability Findings because the Vulnerabilities are reserved
for serving [Vulnerability objects](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/13561).
To fix any broken integrations with the former Vulnerabilities API, change the `vulnerabilities` URL part to be
`vulnerability_findings`.
Every API call to vulnerability findings must be [authenticated](index.md#authentication).
Vulnerability findings are project-bound entities. If a user is not
a member of a project and the project is private, a request on
that project results in a `404` status code.
If a user is able to access the project but does not have permission to
[use the Project Security Dashboard](../user/permissions.md#project-members-permissions),
any request for vulnerability findings of this project results in a `403` status code.
WARNING:
This API is in the process of being deprecated and considered unstable.
The response payload may be subject to change or breakage
across GitLab releases. Please use the
[GraphQL API](graphql/reference/index.md#queryvulnerabilities)
instead. See the [GraphQL examples](#replace-vulnerability-findings-rest-api-with-graphql) to get started.
## Vulnerability findings pagination
By default, `GET` requests return 20 results at a time because the API results
are paginated.
Read more on [pagination](index.md#pagination).
## List project vulnerability findings
List all of a project's vulnerability findings.
```plaintext
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?report_type=sast
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?report_type=container_scanning
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?report_type=sast,dast
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?scope=all
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?scope=dismissed
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?severity=high
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?confidence=unknown,experimental
GET /projects/:id/vulnerability_findings?pipeline_id=42
```
WARNING:
Beginning with GitLab 12.9, the `undefined` severity and confidence level is no longer reported.
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| ------------- | -------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `id` | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](index.md#namespaced-path-encoding) which the authenticated user is a member of. |
| `report_type` | string array | no | Returns vulnerability findings belonging to specified report type. Valid values: `sast`, `dast`, `dependency_scanning`, or `container_scanning`. Defaults to all. |
| `scope` | string | no | Returns vulnerability findings for the given scope: `all` or `dismissed`. Defaults to `dismissed`. |
| `severity` | string array | no | Returns vulnerability findings belonging to specified severity level: `info`, `unknown`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, or `critical`. Defaults to all. |
| `confidence` | string array | no | Returns vulnerability findings belonging to specified confidence level: `ignore`, `unknown`, `experimental`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, or `confirmed`. Defaults to all. |
| `pipeline_id` | integer/string | no | Returns vulnerability findings belonging to specified pipeline. |

## Replace Vulnerability Findings REST API with GraphQL
To prepare for the [upcoming deprecation](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/5118) of
the Vulnerability Findings REST API endpoint, use the examples below to perform the equivalent operations
with the GraphQL API.
### GraphQL - Project vulnerabilities
Use [`Project.vulnerabilities`](graphql/reference/#projectvulnerabilities).
```graphql
{
project(fullPath: "root/security-reports") {
vulnerabilities {
nodes{
id
reportType
title
severity
scanner {
externalId
name
vendor
}
identifiers {
externalType
externalId
name
url
}
falsePositive
project {
id
name
fullPath
}
description
links {
name
url
}
location {
... on
VulnerabilityLocationSast {
file
startLine
endLine
vulnerableClass
vulnerableMethod
blobPath
}
}
details {
... on
VulnerabilityDetailCode {

}
}

}
}
}
}
```
