Set repository scanning mode

Two image scanning modes are available:

On push

The image is re-scanned (1) on each docker push to the repository and (2) when a user with write access clicks the Start Scan links or the Scan button.

Manual

The image is scanned only when a user with write access clicks the Start Scan links or Scan button.

By default, new repositories are set to scan On push, and any repositories that existed before scanning was enabled are set to Manual.

To change the scanning mode for an individual repository:

1. Verify that you have write or admin access to the repository.

2. Navigate to the repository, and click the Settings tab.

3. Scroll down to the Image scanning section.

4. Select the desired scanning mode.
