This section covers the SDKs used to integrate DSXA scanning into applications and services.

For the DSXA Desktop app quick start and install notes, see Resources > DSXA Desktop.

Key Points

1. SDK clients handle request construction, auth headers, connection reuse, and response parsing.
2. Concurrency is typically managed by the caller, not by a single DSXA batch endpoint.
3. Streaming matters for throughput and memory usage, especially for large files.
4. The SDKs are the integration path for services, tools, CLIs, and application code.

Typical SDK usage patterns

1. Scan files already on disk.
2. Scan upload bytes or streams inside a backend service.
3. Run bounded concurrent scans across a folder or queue.
4. Use scan-by-path when the scanner can access the target path directly.
