How to use the ZAP API via Docker
Using Docker to execute and administer the ZAP application is known as running ZAP via Docker.
If you want to run ZAP in a containerized environment or quickly install and operate ZAP on many machines, this can be helpful.
Getting ready
You must install Docker on your computer and get the ZAP Docker image from Docker Hub in order to access the ZAP API via Docker.
The image can then be run as a Docker container, and you can communicate with the container while it is running using the ZAP API.
