# Importing third-party issues This page lists analysis parameters related to the import of issues raised by external, third-party analyzers. If your analyzer isn’t on this page, see the [generic-issue-import-format](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/8.9/analyzing-source-code/importing-external-issues/generic-issue-import-format "mention") for a generic way to import external issues. SonarQube doesn’t run your external analyzers or generate reports. It only imports pre-generated reports. Below you’ll find language- and tool-specific analysis parameters for importing reports generated by external analyzers. In the [guides](https://community.sonarsource.com/c/announce/guides) category of the [SonarSource community forum](https://community.sonarsource.com/) you might find instructions on generating these reports. Some properties support the following wildcards in paths. The remarks for properties that support wildcards will mention that fact. If the remarks do not say wildcards are supported, then they are not.: | **Symbol** | **Meaning** | | ---------- | ------------------------- | | `?` | a single character | | `*` | any number of characters | | `**` | any number of directories | Unless otherwise specified, the following properties accept both absolute paths and paths relative to the project root. | **Language** | **Property** | **Remarks** | | ------------ | ------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Apex | `sonar.apex.pmd.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [PMD Apex](https://pmd.sourceforge.io/pmd-5.5.7/pmd-apex/rules/index.html) | | CSS | `sonar.css.stylelint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [StyleLint.io](https://stylelint.io/) reports | | Go | `sonar.go.govet.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [GoVet](https://golang.org/cmd/vet/) reports | | Go | `sonar.go.golint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [GoLint](https://github.com/golang/lint) reports | | Go | `sonar.go.gometalinter.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [GoMetaLinter](https://github.com/alecthomas/gometalinter) reports | | Go | `sonar.go.golangci-lint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [golangci-lint](https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint) reports in checkstyle format (use `--out-format checkstyle` golangci-lint option) | | Java | `sonar.java.spotbugs.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to reports from [SpotBugs](https://spotbugs.github.io/), FindSecBugs, or FindBugs | | Java | `sonar.java.pmd.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to reports from [PMD](http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/usage.html) | | Java | `sonar.java.checkstyle.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to reports from [Checkstyle](http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/checkstyle-mojo) | | JavaScript | `sonar.eslint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to JSON [ESLint](https://eslint.org/) reports (use `-f json` ESLint option) | | Kotlin | `sonar.androidLint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to AndroidLint reports | | Kotlin | `sonar.kotlin.detekt.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Detekt](https://github.com/arturbosch/detekt) reports | | Python | `sonar.python.pylint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Pylint](http://www.pylint.org/) reports (use `--output-format=parseable`[Pylint option](https://docs.pylint.org/en/1.6.0/output.html)) | | Python | `sonar.python.bandit.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Bandit](https://github.com/PyCQA/bandit/blob/master/README.rst) reports | | Python | `sonar.python.flake8.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Flake8](https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/) reports | | Ruby | `sonar.ruby.rubocop.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Rubocop](https://github.com/rubocop-hq/rubocop) reports | | Scala | `sonar.scala.scalastyle.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Scalastyle](http://www.scalastyle.org/) reports | | Scala | `sonar.scala.scapegoat.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [Scapegoat](https://github.com/sksamuel/scapegoat) reports in the **Scalastyle format** | | Swift | `sonar.swift.swiftLint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [SwiftLint](https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint) reports in JSON format | | TypeScript | `sonar.typescript.tslint.reportPaths` | Comma-delimited list of paths to [TSLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/) reports in JSON format (use `-t json` TSLint option) | **Notes on external .NET issues**\ Issues from third-party Roslyn analyzers (including Roslyn analyzers provided by Microsoft) are included in the MSBuild output and imported by default into SonarQube so no properties exist to enable that behavior. Instead, properties are available to adjust the import and to *stop* importing those issues. Note that Roslyn issues with an *error* severity automatically fail the build. We don’t recommend running the Scanner for MSBuild’s end step if the MSBuild step fails for any reason because it will result in an essentially empty analysis. | **Language** | **Property** | **Remarks** | | ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | C# | `sonar.cs.roslyn.ignoreIssues` | Set to `true` to disable import of external issues.
