Question: Is it possible to use S3 report backend without the need to "scan"

[nupis-DanielS]

Hi,

we use the s3 backend and the "EntityRenovateContent" react component. The "issue" is that we have to "scan" every project before the report data is shown. Is there a way to scan the report automatically for all projects so that the report data is shown directly.

Best regards

Basically the "scan" as you describe is a "run" on the API.

What you probably want is to trigger this import on external run of Renovate?
This can be done via this API endpoint
