Does Dependabot show if it's working?

[parsley72]

I've added this to my Yocto build:

    - name: SBOM upload 
      uses: advanced-security/spdx-dependency-submission-action@v0.0.1
      with:
        filePath: "poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/oclea-cv25/"

and it seems to work:

Run advanced-security/spdx-dependency-submission-action@v0.0.1
  with:
    filePath: poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/oclea-cv25/
    token: ***
    filePattern: *.spdx.json

    }
}

But Dependabot doesn't show anything. Is there something else I need to do, or a log I can check?

@parsley72 This Action submits SPDX files to the Submission API, Dependabot Alerts will only show if the ecosystem is supported. If you upload something like pkg:generic/oclea-image@undefined (generic manager), Dependabot won't be able to create an alert based on that PURL.

Try looking in the tab "Repository -> Insights -> Dependency graph" and see if your data is in there.
