Query Parameters
Package URL identifying the component to analyze.
Version constraint for component resolution when PURL lacks explicit version.
Response
A successful response.
Success example. For error cases, the component block reports the processing status via info_message and info_code. Example: {"component":{"purl":"pkg:github/unknown/component","requirement":">=1.0.0","version":"","algorithms":[],"info_message":"Component not found in database","info_code":"COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND"},"status":{"status":"SUCCESS","message":"Request processed"}}
Cryptographic algorithm information for a specific component identified by PURL and version.
Contains comprehensive algorithm details including detected algorithms and their strength classifications for software components.
