OSS Licenses
The Licenses & SBOM page gives you a complete picture of the open-source licenses used across your code and containers, the legal risk each license carries, and lets you export a Software-Bill-of-Materials (SBOM) for compliance and audit purposes.
You can find it in the main navigation under Reports > Licenses & SBOM.
Overview
The overview provides a searchable list of every package we found and the license it ships under.
For each package you'll see:
Package name: with an icon showing its language or ecosystem.
License type: the license(s) we detected.
Legal risk: how risky this license is for your project.
Location: where the package was found. If it appears in several places, you'll see the first location and a "[X] others" tooltip to view the rest.
Acting on a package
Each package has an actions menu (the ⋯ icon) with the following options:
Mark as Internal Package
Tells Aikido this is your own code, not a third-party dependency. The package is excluded from license risk reporting. Useful for internal libraries that picked up an unexpected license signal.
Change Risk Level
Override the legal risk for this specific package. Use this when the default risk doesn't match how you actually use the package.
Overwrite License
Manually correct the detected license. For example, if the auto-detection got it wrong or the package's license file is missing.
You can also click the info icon next to any license type for a simple explanation of what that license allows and restricts, or the locations link to see every place a package shows up.
Bulk actions
Tick the checkboxes on multiple packages to perform bulk actions on them:
Mark as Internal License: mark all selected packages as internal in a single step.
Change Risk Level: apply a new risk level to every selected package.
License groups
The License Groups tab is the same data viewed by license instead of by package. Each row represents one license type and shows:
The license name (e.g. MIT, Apache-2.0, GPL-3.0).
How many of your dependencies use that license.
The legal risk level assigned to that license.
Click a license to jump back to the Overview tab filtered to just that license. From the row menu you can Adjust risk to change the risk level for the license itself, this affects every package using it, which is useful when your legal team has approved or rejected a license.
