Global Component & License Lookup Tab

The Global Component & License Lookup tab on the Data Library page provides a means for users to explore OSS and third-party components and licenses in the Code Insight Data Library outside the context of project inventory. From this tab, users perform a filtered search on components or licenses in the library (on the Components or Licenses tabs, respectively) and then, from the list of results, can delve into the details about the individual components or licenses.

A global search might be useful, for example, when a current inventory component is associated with security vulnerabilities. Users can perform a global search on the Data Library to look for components and their versions that might be associated with less severe or no vulnerabilities, thereby helping the user to decide whether to replace the current inventory component with another more secure one.

For more information about accessing and using this tab, see Exploring Components and Licenses in the Data Library.
