Synchronizing an SCM Instance

FlexNet Code Insight 2019 R1

After testing your SCM connection, you can synchronize the instance to get the codebase files from the selected repository.

To sync an SCM instance, do the following:

1. If you are not already on the Version Control Settings tab, navigate to it.
2. Click Sync Now to get files from the repository. Files are stored in the root folder for the Code Insight scan server, which contains subfolders with project IDs. Under each project ID folder, subfolders with names such as git.0 or git.1 are generated. The number of subfolders is equal to the number of instances created inside your FlexNet Code Insight project.

Note • If multiple instances have been added, clicking Sync Now will synchronize all instances. If the sync fails for one instance, the overall sync will fail as well.
