SnykGitLabImport

Model for creating GitLab import jobs (v1 API).

  1. Overview

Overview

This model creates import jobs that import GitLab repositories into Snyk for scanning. After creation, use SnykImportJob to check the import status.

Uses the Snyk v1 API endpoint: POST /org/{orgId}/integrations/{integrationId}/import

Usage

import clearskies
from clearskies_snyk.models.v1 import SnykGitLabImport, SnykImportJob


def my_handler(snyk_gitlab_import: SnykGitLabImport, snyk_import_job: SnykImportJob):
    # Create an import job for a GitLab repository
    import_response = snyk_gitlab_import.create(
        {
            "org_id": "4a18d42f-0706-4ad0-b127-24078731fbed",
            "integration_id": "9a3e5d90-b782-468a-a042-9a2073736f0b",
            "target": {"id": 12345, "branch": "develop"},
            "files": [{"path": "package.json"}, {"path": "backend/requirements.txt"}],
            "exclusion_globs": "fixtures,tests,node_modules",
        }
    )

    # The job ID is returned in the response
    job_id = import_response.id
    org_id = import_response.org_id
    integration_id = import_response.integration_id

    # Check import job status
    job = snyk_import_job.find(f"org_id={org_id}&integration_id={integration_id}&id={job_id}")
    print(f"Status: {job.status}")

Target Object

The target object specifies the GitLab repository to import:

  • id (required): The numeric ID of the GitLab repository
  • branch (required): The branch to import

Files Array

Optional list of specific manifest files to import. Each file object has:

  • path: Relative path to the manifest file (e.g., “package.json”, “pom.xml”)

If not specified, Snyk will auto-detect all supported manifest files.

Exclusion Globs

A comma-separated list of up to 10 folder names to exclude from scanning. If not specified, defaults to “fixtures, tests, tests, node_modules”. Use empty string to exclude no folders.
