Projects

Projects are the primary technical unit in HenKaiPan. Each project represents a codebase you want to scan.

Projects

Product Model

Apps (Optional)

Business-level groupings for organizing projects:

  • Example: "Mobile App", "Web Platform", "Internal Tools"
  • Apps are optional — projects can exist standalone
  • Useful for team-level rollups and filtering

Projects

The core unit that you:

  • Create manually or import from GitHub
  • Connect to a Git repository
  • Configure scans for
  • Review findings from

Each project shows:

Standalone Projects

Projects can exist without an App (app_id = NULL):

  • Useful for small teams or single-repo setups
  • Global Projects view shows all projects regardless of app
