# Configure repository monitoring

{% hint style="info" %}
**Release status**

Repository monitoring configuration is in Early Access and available only with Enterprise plans. To enable the feature, visit [Snyk Preview](https://docs.snyk.io/snyk-admin/manage-settings/snyk-preview).
{% endhint %}

## Overview

{% hint style="info" %}
To perform bulk monitoring configuration and maintain visibility into the security health of all repositories, you must be a Group Admin.
{% endhint %}

You can manage repository coverage and monitoring configurations centrally across your entire Snyk Group from the **Inventory** page, at Group level. This means you can monitor and manage repositories without navigating between individual Snyk Organizations.

Repository monitoring configuration provides the following capabilities:

* Centralized asset monitoring: view monitoring status for all products, identify health status, and see required actions (such as enabling Snyk Code or resolving SCM integration issues) in one view.
* Bulk import: import repositories directly from the Group **Inventory** page into specific Snyk Organizations.
* On-demand retesting: trigger a retest for specific repositories directly from **Inventory**.
* Actionable error resolution: clear guidance ia available when testing fails due to integration issues or entitlements. After the underlying issue is resolved, testing resumes automatically.

## Configure settings for repository monitoring

You can configure repository monitoring settings for your Projects across multiple repositories simultaneously. These configurations are asset-based. To do this, navigate to **Inventory** > **All Assets**, at the Group level.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Select the repositories to update.

Select one or more repositories that you want to update and click **Continue**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Select the configuration type

Select one of the following:

* **Create new configuration (override)**: create a new configuration for the repositories you selected and override previous configurations.
* **Update specific settings (partial)**: update the settings for an existing configuration.

Click **Continue**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Configure settings

On the configuration page, the following configurations are available:

* **Test frequency**: update the test frequency for Open Source and Code Projects to **Daily**, **Weekly**, or **Never**.

{% hint style="info" %}
It is not possible to manage these settings at Organization level for assets tracked on the **Inventory** page.
{% endhint %}

* **Report to Organization**: map repositories to Snyk Organizations. To avoid duplicate issues, Snyk recommends one Snyk Organization per repository.
* **Testing exclusions (optional)**: manage file exclusions for Snyk Open Source and Snyk Container Projects. Exclusions apply at the asset level. You cannot exclude specific files for the same repository in different Snyk Organizations.

{% hint style="info" %}
For Snyk Code, you can manage exclusions using the `.snyk` files, in order to maintain developer-first workflows.
{% endhint %}

Click **Continue**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Enable monitoring

Review your configuration settings and click **Enable monitoring**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
