Potential XSS from API calls below: GET <app>/v1/credentials GET <app>/v1/credentials/<id> GET <app>/v1/archive/credentials/<id> GET <app>/v1/archive/credentials POST <app>/v1/credentials PUT <app>/v1/credentials/<id> PUT <app>/v1/credentials/<id>/<to_revision>

GET <app>/v1/services GET <app>/v1/services/<id> GET <app>/v1/archive/services/<id> GET <app>/v1/archive/services PUT <app>/v1/services/<id> PUT <app>/v1/services/<id>/<to_revision>
