# SBOM test

**Feature availability:** This feature is available to customers on Snyk Enterprise plans.

## Usage

`snyk sbom test --file=<FILE_PATH> [<OPTIONS>]`

## Description

The `snyk sbom test` command checks SBOM files for vulnerabilities in open-source packages.

## Exit codes

Possible exit codes and their meaning:

**0**: success (scan completed), no vulnerabilities found\
**1**: action_needed (scan completed), vulnerabilities found\
**2**: failure, try to re-run the command

## Configure the Snyk CLI

You can use environment variables to configure the Snyk CLI and set variables for connecting with the Snyk API. See [Configure the Snyk CLI](https://docs.snyk.io/snyk-cli/configure-the-snyk-cli)

## Debug

Use the `-d` or `--debug` option to output the debug logs.

## Options

### `--file=<FILE_PATH>`

Required. Specify the file path of the SBOM document.

The `snyk sbom test` command accepts the following file formats:

- CycloneDX: JSON version 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6
- SPDX: JSON version 2.3

Packages and components within the provided SBOM file must be identified by a PackageURL (purl).

Supported purl types are: `apk`, `cargo`, `cocoapods`, `conan`, `composer`, `deb`, `gem`, `generic`, `golang`, `hex`, `maven`, `npm`, `nuget`, `pub`, `pypi`, `rpm`, `swift`.

Example: `$ snyk sbom test --file=bom.cdx.json`

### `--json`

Print results on the console as a JSON data structure.

Example: `$ snyk sbom test --file=bom.cdx.json --json`

### `--reachability=<true|false>`

Perform reachability analysis during the scan. This feature is currently in Snyk Preview. For more information, refer to [Reachability analysis](https://docs.snyk.io/manage-risk/prioritize-issues-for-fixing/reachability-analysis)

Default: `false`

### `--source-dir=<PATH_TO_SOURCE_CODE>`

Specify a directory of source code to be analyzed. Use with `--reachability`.

### `--reachability-filter=<reachable|no-info|not-applicable>`

Filter the findings to show only reachable or non-reachable (`no-info`) vulnerabilities, or vulnerabilities where reachability analysis could not be performed (`not-applicable`).

Requires `--reachability=true`.

### `--severity-threshold=<low|medium|high|critical>`

Report only vulnerabilities at the specified level or higher.
