Viewing issue details - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's documentation describes how Burp Suite DAST users can open an issue record to view a detailed description and a Timeline tab showing the full history of that issue. The timeline is available only on an issue record opened at the global, folder, or site level, since an issue viewed from a scan is a snapshot taken at scan time and has no timeline.
Bottom line: An issue seen only inside a scan is frozen at the moment it was found, so the record that carries the full history sits at the global, folder, or site level - and that is the one a security leader needs when asked how long a finding has been open.
