Blocked packages and requests
Ask for a package or image
Send a request to the approvers, and follow what happens to it.
- Open Requests in the menu.
- Pick the type: npm, PyPI or images.
- Type the name as you would install or pull it.
- Type the versions you need. For npm use a range like
^4.21.0. For images use a tag like7.4-alpine. Leave it empty to ask for every version. - Say why you need it. A good reason gets a faster answer.
- Click Send it.

- Send the request
Your request is scanned for malware and checked for advisories straight away. That takes up to 10 minutes for a package and up to 30 minutes for a new image, so try again later. If your admin has switched on auto approve, a request that comes back clean is approved by itself.
Your requests are listed below the form, with what the check found. An install that was blocked may already have made a request for you, with the token that tried it.

You only see your own requests. Approvers see everyone's.
