Azure Resource Manager

Language-specific information about the way SonarQube Cloud supports the analysis of Azure Resource Manager code.

SonarQube Cloud analysis supports Azure Resource Manager templates and its two formats, JSON and Bicep.

Supported versions

The level of support for a language is defined as follows:

  • Fully supported: Analysis will complete. All the language features are understood and examined.

  • Supported: Most language features are understood and examined but the version includes unsupported features. Analysis might break or provide incomplete results.

JSON

The 2019-04-01 deployment template JSON schema is supported.

Bicep

All versions up to 0.42.2 are supported.

Language-specific properties

To discover and update the Azure Resource Manger-specific properties, navigate in SonarQube Cloud to Your Project > Administration > General Settings > Languages > Azure Resource Manger. See Configuration overview for more information about setting properties.

In-line suppression of issues

Adding the NOSONAR comment on the line will suppress all issues on that line:

  • NOSONAR can be placed anywhere in the comment.

  • The comment check is case-sensitive.

Rather than relying on this method, we suggest refining your analysis scope to avoid creating major gaps in your code review. Because the NOSONAR comment silences all current and future issues on a line without regard for their severity, it is an imprecise tool. Even if you only intend to hide a minor stylistic point, you could unintentionally obscure a serious security flaw.
