Setting up integration at global level
This section explains how to set up GitHub and SonarQube for their integration at the global level. You need the global Administer System permission in SonarQube to perform this setup.
This setup consists of:
- Verifying the server base URL
You must configure your SonarQube server base URL in SonarQube, otherwise, integration features will not work correctly. - Setting up a GitHub App
You need to use a GitHub App to connect SonarQube with a GitHub instance. - Setting up user provisioning and authentication: see Authenticating with GitHub.
- Setting up the report of security alerts
Starting in Developer Edition, SonarQube can provide feedback about security issues inside the GitHub interface itself as code scanning alerts under the Security tab. - Setting parameters used by GitHub Actions
You can define at the global level the parameters used in GitHub Actions workflows to connect to the SonarQube Server (Server URL and token).
