Determining the upgrade path

On this page

SonarQube Community Build uses a calendar version scheme. To determine your upgrade path, consider the following principles:

  • You can upgrade directly from one version to another if both versions are within the same year. 
  • You must upgrade to the December version first to upgrade to a next year's version.
