Retrieving issues

Retrieve and view detected issues after your project's analysis.

You can retrieve and view the issues detected during the analysis of any public project. For a private project, you need the Browse permission on the project.

Retrieving issues

In the top navigation bar of SonarQube Server, select Issues. Alternatively, you can:

  • Retrieve your project and select Issues in the project navigation bar. See Retrieving projects for more information.

  • Retrieve issues from the analysis report by selecting the reported number of issues.
