To get started analyzing your GitHub projects with SonarQube Cloud, see [Getting started with GitHub](/sonarqube-cloud/getting-started/github.md).
{% endhint %}

SonarQube Cloud’s integration is supported with GitHub plans running on the [github.com](https://github.com/) domain.

## Key features <a href="#key-features" id="key-features"></a>

With this integration, you’ll be able to:

* Authenticate with GitHub (through the SonarQube Cloud GitHub application).\
  Automatic member synchronization is supported.
* Import your GitHub organization and its repositories into SonarQube Cloud to easily set up SonarQube Cloud projects.\
  The following additional features are supported:
  * The auto-import of new GitHub repositories.
  * The bulk import of all existing repositories.
  * The automatic analysis of the projects’ main branch.
* Analyze projects with GitHub Actions.\
  SonarScanners running in GitHub Actions jobs can automatically detect branches or pull requests being built.\
  You can fail the job if the SonarQube quality gate fails.
* Report your quality gate status to your branches and pull requests.\
  You can see your quality gate and code metric results right in GitHub so you know if it’s safe to merge your changes. You can prevent pull request merges when the quality gate fails.
* Import your monorepo into SonarQube Cloud to easily manage the related projects.
