Summary tab – Docs Library | Snyk

The main dashboard of the Reports area displays a birds-eye view of all of the issues (vulnerabilities and licenses) found across all of your projects, presenting data for these specific areas:

Security issues
License issues
Your overall project activity—a summary of all of your projects, tests and issues

Note

Data in each of the four tabs is displayed based on the filters you've applied from the top of the Reports area, as well as the group or organization that you're viewing from.

The dashboard appears similar to the following image:

To quickly view additional data for a specific period in time, hover over the relevant graph and check out the pop-up:

Summary tab elements

The following table describes the different parts of the Summary area:

Element	Description
Security issues	Sum total of security issues broken down by severity. Security issues are vulnerabilities found when scanning your projects. All statistics in the Security issue summary area are linked. Click a number in order to navigate to the Issues tab of the Reports area, filtered to vulnerabilities for the selected severity only. For example, clicking the 300 in the Security issues high severity box navigates to the Issues tab, filtered to those 300 high severity vulnerabilities only. Values: High severity Medium severity Low severity
License issues	Sum total of license issues broken down by severity. All statistics in the License issue summary area are linked. Click a number in order to navigate to the Issues tab of the Reports area, filtered to the specific group of license issues. For example, clicking the 28 in the License issues medium severity box navigates to the Issues tab, filtered to those 28 medium severity license issues only. Values: High severity Medium severity Low severity
Issues over time	Issues graph displaying the number of issues, high medium and low, that were identified.
Exposure window	The elapsed time from when an issue was identified and until it was resolved.

For the Activity area, the following are the parameters and their descriptions:

Value	Description
Tests run	Number of tests run
Projects	Number of projects
New issues	Number of times an issue was introduced in the time period (includes reintroduced issues and deleted projects)
Fixed issues	Number of fixes applied in the time period (including reintroduced issues and deleted projects)
Tests preventing issues	Snyk tests that have been run and that have prevented new vulnerabilities from being introduced.
Ignored issues	The total number of the issues found, but ignored, as well as the total number of ignored issues that have a fix available. These are issues not counted in any of the other totals in this Summary area. These values are linked to the Issues tab of the Reports area, filtered to the specific group of ignored issues. Click the number in the Ignored issues box to jump to the Issues tab, filtered to those ignored issues only. Clicking on the fixable number from the same box navigates to the Issues tab, filtered to those fixable, yet ignored, issues only. Note Once you ignore an issue, it may take up to one hour before synchronizing with the data on the Summary tab of the Reports.
