The [Azure DevOps extension for SonarQube Server](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SonarSource.sonarqube) makes it easy to integrate analysis into your Azure build pipeline. The extension allows the analysis of all languages supported by SonarQube Server. For more information, see [azure-pipelines-integration-overview](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.1/devops-platform-integration/azure-devops-integration/azure-pipelines-integration-overview "mention").
This page explains how to install the extension. Once the integration at a global level with Azure DevOps is complete, and you have set up project integration, you can Add SonarQube analysis to your pipeline.
## Installation requirements
| **Category** | **Requirement** |
| ----------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Azure DevOps | The extension will work with these Azure product versions:
• Azure DevOps Services
• Azure DevOps Server 2022.2
• Azure DevOps Server 2020.1.2
• Azure DevOps Server 2019.1.2
|
| Azure pipeline agents | The extension will work with all of the hosted agents (Windows, Linux, and macOS):
• If you are using Microsoft-hosted agents, there is nothing else to install.
• If you are self-hosting the agents, see General requirements on scanner environment. In addition, make sure the appropriate build tools are installed on the agent for the type of project you are analyzing. For example, .NET Framework v4.6.2+/NET Core 3.1+ if building using MSBuild, Maven for Java projects, etc.
The minimum agent version for @8 tasks of the Azure DevOps Extension for SonarQube Server is 3.218.0.
|
| Allowed websites | In order to download binaries and communicate with SonarQube Server, the following URLs should be allowed:
• SonarQube base URL.
• If using the Maven/Gradle mode or not using the default version of SonarScanner for .NET or CLI: the Sonar binaries site (binaries.sonarsource.com).
|
| If your instance of SonarQube Server is secured | If your SonarQube Server instance is configured with HTTPS and a self-signed certificate, you must add the self-signed certificate to the trusted CA certificates of the SonarScanner. In addition, if mutual TLS is used, you must define the access to the client certificate at the SonarScanner level.
See manage-tls-certificates.
|
## Installing the extension
1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps Services organization or Azure DevOps Server collection with the dedicated technical account you created in [setting-up-integration-at-global-level](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.1/devops-platform-integration/azure-devops-integration/setting-up-integration-at-global-level "mention").
2. From the Visual Studio Marketplace, install the [Azure DevOps extension for SonarQube](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SonarSource.sonarqube) by selecting the **Get it free** button.
## If upgrading from a previous version of the extension
### Smooth migration
The latest version of the Azure DevOps extension for SonarQube embeds the latest version of SonarScanner for .NET and SonarScanner CLI. However, to allow a smooth migration, you can set up your Azure build pipeline to use a previous version of one of these scanners and thus, continue using a previous SonarQube tasks version until you’re ready to upgrade. See [various-features](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.1/devops-platform-integration/azure-devops-integration/adding-analysis-to-pipeline/various-features "mention").
{% hint style="info" %}
In that case, the Sonar binaries site (`binaries.sonarsource.com`) must be allowed.
{% endhint %}
### Prepare analysis configuration task: new scanner mode values
Allowable values for the `scannerMode` required property of the [sonarqube-tasks](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.1/devops-platform-integration/azure-devops-integration/adding-analysis-to-pipeline/sonarqube-tasks "mention") have changed with the v7 extension. Please use the following in your @8 tasks:
* `dotnet` for the .NET mode
* `cli` for the CLI mode
* `other` for the Maven / Gradle mode
### Deprecation notices
* @7 tasks are deprecated in v8.0 of the extension and will be dropped in a subsequent release.
* @5 and @6 tasks were dropped in v8.0 of the extension.
## Previous versions
As new scanner versions are released, previous requirements and/or planned deprecations will be listed here.
Azure DevOps v7.x.x extension for SonarQube Server
* @6 tasks were deprecated in v7.0 extension.
* The minimum Azure pipeline agents version for @7 tasks of the Azure DevOps Extension for SonarQube Server is 3.218.0.
Azure DevOps v6.2.x extension for SonarQube Server
The current versions of the SonarScanner for .NET and SonarScanner CLI are embedded and depending on your configuration, some additional setup may be required.
If you want to specify the exact .NET or CLI scanner version, use the the `msBuildVersion` and `cliVersion` properties. See the [#prepare-analysis-configuration](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.1/devops-platform-integration/azure-devops-integration/adding-analysis-to-pipeline/sonarqube-tasks#prepare-analysis-configuration "mention") page for details.
When specifying a particular scanner version, internet access is required by the pipelines calling the .NET or CLI scanners:
* Access to [github.com](http://github.com/) is required to download the SonarScanner for .NET. The GitHub URL and its HTTP redirect, `objects.githubusercontent.com`, should be allowed.
* Access to [binaries.sonarsource.com](http://binaries.sonarsource.com/) is required to download the SonarScanner CLI. The Sonar binaries should be allowed.
For users running on-premise or using self-hosted agents, the minimum agent version for SonarQube v6 tasks is 3.218.0.
**in v6.0.1**
* Version @5 tasks were deprecated .
Azure DevOps v5.x.x extension for SonarQube Server
* For users running on-premise or using self-hosted agents, the minimum agent version for SonarQube version @5 tasks is 2.114.0.
