Faster feedback for broken navigation sequences in Snyk API & Web

We're giving you more control over how scans behave when a navigation sequence fails. In your Target Settings, you'll now find an option to immediately fail a scan if a navigation sequence cannot be completed. When enabled, the scan stops right away, allowing you to fix the issue sooner.

Previously, a failed navigation sequence would not stop a scan, potentially leading to incomplete results and wasted resources. This change allows you to get faster feedback on broken test sequences, saving time and preventing tedious manual reviews to identify why a scan may not have covered the intended user journeys.

Starting September 30, 2025, you will see a new checkbox in the Navigation Sequences module within your Target Settings: When a navigation sequence fails, fail the scan immediately and notify me. This option is disabled by default, so existing scans will continue to run as they do now. To enable this fail-fast behavior, you will need to edit your Target Settings. You can also configure new notifications for these failures in your Slack integration settings.
