 You also need to specify `--namespaces` option.

+### Scan arbitrary JSON and YAML configurations
+By default, scanning JSON and YAML configurations is disabled, since Trivy does not contain built-in checks for these configurations. To enable it, pass the `json` or `yaml` to `--misconfig-scanners`. See [Enabling a subset of misconfiguration scanners](#enabling-a-subset-of-misconfiguration-scanners) for more information. Trivy will pass each file as is to the checks input.

+```bash
+$ cat iac/serverless.yaml
+service: serverless-rest-api-with-pynamodb
+
+frameworkVersion: ">=2.24.0"

+plugins:
+  - serverless-python-requirements

+
+You can also pass schemas using the `config-file-schemas` flag. Trivy will use these schemas for file filtering and type checking in Rego checks. If the file does not match any of the passed schemas, it will be ignored.
+
+!!! example
+```bash
+$ trivy config --misconfig-scanners=json,yaml --config-check ./serverless.rego --check-namespaces user --config-file-schemas ./serverless-schema.json ./iac

 ### Passing custom data
 You can pass directories including your custom data through `--data` option.
 This can be repeated for specifying multiple directories.
