Locate API endpoints for GHAS features, like secret scanning, code scanning, and Dependabot

- [Instructor] Well, this is just a reminder that each of those services in GitHub Advanced Security, dependabot alerts, secret scanning, code scanning are just standard issue REST APIs, and we've used them quite a bit through this course. We can use the GitHub CLI or the GH tool. We can use Postman or curl, whatever method you want to if you're not using a programming language or SDK. The benefit that GitHub gives us as customers is programmatic control. We can interact with GitHub Advanced Security features through these endpoints. Also allows us, therefore, to build integrations and automation with external services that we want to work with our GitHub, and of course, the GitHub docs are always your canonical source of authority regarding their products.
