DevOps platform user accounts
By default, users can authenticate to SonarQube Cloud with their existing credentials on their DevOps platform service (DOP). No additional setup is required.
With the DOP user onboarding:
- Just-in-Time user provisioning is used.
- The automatic member synchronization is supported with GitHub.
Just-in-Time user provisioning
When a user signs up with SonarQube Cloud for the first time through their DOP, their DOP user account is automatically created in SonarQube Cloud.
User login format
When creating a new user login, SonarQube Cloud systematically adds a random suffix to the login name to manage user misidentification risk.
When setting up API-based automations related to users, don't use the login
field to retrieve a user. Use the email
field instead.
GitHub member synchronization
The GitHub member synchronization allows the automatic synchronization of organization members between GitHub and SonarQube Cloud. Note that user groups and permissions are not synchronized.
When you import a GitHub organization to SonarQube Cloud, the member synchronization is enabled by default on the new SonarQube Cloud organization. It means that:
- Existing SonarQube Cloud users who are members of the GitHub organization will be automatically added to the SonarQube Cloud organization during the import.
- New SonarQube Cloud users who are members of the GitHub organization will be automatically added to the SonarQube Cloud organization when they first sign up with SonarQube Cloud.
- Adding or removing GitHub organization members will be automatically synchronized in SonarQube Cloud, provided the corresponding SonarQube Cloud user exists.
You can disable or enable the synchronization of bound organizations manually.
- When you enable synchronization manually, members of the SonarQube Cloud organization who aren't members of the corresponding GitHub organization will be removed from the organization.
- The GitHub member synchronization cannot be used in an organization that belongs to a SAML-SSO-enabled enterprise.
