Integrate with existing tools

Integrate code scanning with your existing tools and workflows by running scans in your CI system or uploading results to GitHub using Static Analysis Results Interchange Format (SARIF).

Using code scanning with your existing CI system

You can analyze your code with the CodeQL CLI or another tool in a third-party continuous integration system and upload the results to GitHub. The resulting code scanning alerts are shown alongside any alerts generated within GitHub.

Uploading a SARIF file to GitHub

You can upload SARIF files generated outside GitHub and see code scanning alerts from third-party tools in your repository.
