About editing your configuration of default setup
After running an initial analysis of your code with default setup, you may need to make changes to your configuration to better meet your code security needs. For existing configurations of default setup, you can edit:
- Which languages default setup will analyze.
- The query suite run during analysis. For more information on the available query suites, see "Built-in CodeQL query suites."
If you need to change any other aspects of your code scanning configuration, consider configuring advanced setup. For more information, see "Configuring advanced setup for code scanning."
