Targets
A target is a URL (site or API host) you authorize Slate to scan. Targets belong to your workspace and can be scanned multiple times.
Adding a target
In the dashboard, open Targets → Add target and enter a hostname or URL, for example:
- example.com (normalized to https://example.com)
- https://api.example.com
- staging.example.com
You must check the authorization box confirming you have permission to scan the target. Slate stores the consent timestamp, your user id, and the declaration version for audit purposes.
Target limits
Each plan includes a number of targets. You can add recurring target slot add-ons on Startup and Scale to increase capacity. The sidebar shows how many targets you have registered versus your limit.
- Startup — 1 target included
- Scale — 3 targets included
- Extra slots — billed monthly on your subscription while active
If you are over your limit, existing targets remain, but you cannot add new ones until you are under the cap or purchase more slots. See Plans & usage.
CLI and API
The CLI and API create targets automatically when you scan a domain. Consent is recorded on the server when the target is created through the API. For production workflows, we still recommend documenting internal approval to scan each environment.
