We already keep the last at max 5 scores in the scores table, We can return a list of the score to UI, then UI can decide if its shows the value or if it shows a sign for the trend

We just need to create a api to return a list of score with timestamp of generation, It would help the UI to analyse the trend easily

No you don't.
Plugins Site is using one API endpoint and shouldn't have to multiply the calls.

In the current /api/scores output, we should add a new entry, for each plugin, to hold the previously known score.

Thanks @alecharp so the endpoint will be /api/scores/{pluginName} this will return all the score result

No, that would still be a new endpoint. We want the trend to be accessible in the current /api/scores output.

@alecharp Thanks, in this case, we can create and pass another parameter in the score card, return bodyBuilder.body(new ScoreReport(plugins, scoreService.getScoresStatistics())); that contains all the information of past score of a plugin

No. We want the elements of plugins to have a previousScore for example.

@alecharp Example, in single DB call ?
"plugins": {
"aws-java-sdk-sns": {
"value": 24,
"date": "2024-01-24T07:56:49.118963Z",
"previousScore": 98, 34, 23
"details": {
"security": {
"value": 100,
"weight": 1,
"components": [
{
"value": 100,
"weight": 1,
"reasons": [
"Plugin does not seem to have on-going security advisory."
],
"resolutions": null
}
]
},

Either you provide an array of previous score, or only one value. Last value is enough.

Thank you so much @alecharp I guess it is good to provide all previous score to better analysis

No, only last score is better. It's easier to interpret.
