Overview

The Bugcrowd API gives you programmatic access to your organization's bug bounty program data, including submissions, rewards, and researcher profiles. You can use it to automate triage workflows, sync vulnerability reports into your issue tracker, or build dashboards. It is useful for security teams managing large volumes of researcher submissions.

💡

Beginner Tip

Start by reading the Bugcrowd API docs thoroughly — endpoints require your organization's program ID which you can find in your Bugcrowd dashboard URL. Use the sandbox environment for testing before touching production data.
