PR Experience to Be Default Enabled and Generally Available on April 22, 2025

Early access

Update: The rollout has officially started on April 22 and will proceed gradually through to May 1.

We are excited to announce that Issue Summary comment and High Context Inline comments are coming to General Availability soon! As part of this exciting milestone, we're taking the next step by enabling these capabilities by default for all customers who use PR checks on April 22nd, 2025. With this update, all GitHub and Bitbucket (except Bitbucket Server) repositories with PR checks enabled will automatically include both the Issue Summary comment and SAST High Context Inline comments, revolutionizing how your developers identify and address vulnerabilities without ever leaving the SCM.

The repositories onboarded via the following SCM integrations are in scope of this change:

  • GitHub: GitHub OAuth*, GitHub Enterprise (PAT), and GitHub Cloud App

  • Bitbucket: Bitbucket Cloud (PAT), Bitbucket Cloud App

Key highlights โ€‹โ€‹of this release

On April 22nd, 2025, all repositories with PR checks enabled will automatically activate the following capabilities:

  • Issue Summary comment for both PR check success and failure cases, covering Snyk Code and Open Source security & license checks.

  • High Context Inline comments for Snyk Code findings.

Repositories that have either (1) manually disabled either of the comments after initial enablement or (2) disabled summary comments for success scenarios during Early Access will remain unchanged, ensuring prior preferences are respected.

Opt-Out Requests

  • Opt-out requests can be submitted via our dedicated form or through your Snyk POC (include Group/Org IDs)

  • Opt-out submissions received before April 21st, 2025 will not be default enabled

To customize your preferences at any time after default enablement, you can simply visit your integration settings in the Snyk WebUI where you can toggle comments off.

This milestone represents our ongoing commitment to transforming the developer experience with Snyk, making security an integrated, intuitive part of your development workflow ๐Ÿš€

*Note: For GitHub OAuth integrations, a PAT token with the right permissions will need to be added to start receiving PR comments.
