Report Plugin for SonarQube 2.22 is here

We have a new version of our product: Report Plugin for SonarQube Server 2.22.

In this update, we have added one of the most requested features by our users: the ability to generate detailed reports of quality profiles and their active rules directly from SonarQube Server.

Although SonarQube already centralizes all this information, there is often a need for formal documentation to share with other teams, vendors, or even security auditors. Having an exportable and well-structured document is key to demonstrating the maturity of software quality processes.

What's included in version 2.22

The new version of Report Plugin for SonarQube Server 2.22 allows you to:

Generate automatic reports of the quality profiles configured in SonarQube.

List the active rules of each profile, organized by security, hotspots, reliability, and maintainability.

How can I get a Quality Gates report?

To use this new functionality of the Report Plugin for SonarQube Server, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the More tab in the main menu.

  2. Access the new Rules Reporting section.

  3. In the window that opens, select the language and the Quality Gate for which you want the report.
