Get started with Build Scan® for Gradle, Apache Maven™, and sbt

A Build Scan® is a shareable record of a build that provides insights into what happened and why. You can create a Build Scan at scans.gradle.com for the Gradle, Maven and sbt build tools for free.

Publishing a Build Scan to scans.gradle.com transmits information about your Gradle, Maven and sbt builds and their environment to Gradle's servers. The information is only accessible via a randomly generated link, printed at the end of the build. You can delete the Build Scan when you are finished.

A Build Scan that has not been viewed within 3 months of being created will be removed. Once a Build Scan has been viewed, it will be available indefinitely.

Develocity, our on-premises software, provides a version of the Build Scan service with additional features.
