Onboarding a new organization

Onboarding a new organization to your enterprise is different depending on if your enterprise is using SSO or not.

To perform this procedure, you must be an admin of your enterprise. The procedure is different if the enterprise is SSO-enabled or not.

Without SSO

  1. Create your organization in SonarQube Cloud by importing the DevOps platform organization and select the Free plan. See:

  2. Add the organization to the enterprise:

    • Retrieve your enterprise.

    • Go to Administration > Organizations and select Add organization.

  3. Optionally, allocate an individual LOC limit to the organization. See Allocating a LOC limit to an organization.

  4. Create the organization's user groups. See Managing user groups for more details.

  5. Verify the groups' default permissions on new projects in the organization. See Using permission templates for more details.

  6. Set project configurations at the organization level. See Introduction to Performing global analysis setup for more details.

  7. Set the enterprise permissions for the new enterprise members. See Managing your enterprise for more details.

  8. Authorized organization members can now create projects or portfolios.

    • The relevant user groups defined in your IdP service exist in your organization (i.e. a group with the same name exists in the organization).

    • The user groups in your organizations have the correct organization-related permissions. See Managing organization permissions for more information.

  5. Verify the groups' default permissions on new projects in the organization. See Using permission templates for more details.

  8. Invite your DevOps platform organization users to sign up for SonarQube Cloud. See Step 3: Invite users to sign in for more details. Their SonarQube Cloud SSO account will be automatically created.

  9. Authorized organization members can now create projects or portfolios.
