SonarCloud integration (Import API)

Unlock the potential of SonarCloud integration using the Import API functionality, empowering you to craft custom metrics tailored to your data source.

While SonarCloud was not officially supported by Perf in the past, it used to function within Perf under SonarQube integration versions prior to 8.6. However, this integration broke after subsequent updates on SonarQube side.

Let's walk through the process:

Go to Data Source Configuration page
Choose “SonarCloud” in Import API section
Enter SonarCloud link and password
Fill in your SonarCloud projects (this should be done manually)
Save and run data load

Important: for each new environment it's required SonarCloud agent to be enabled

Now you are ready to explore the Custom Metrics feature to effortlessly generate your own metrics by associating them with the respective table names:

Metric	Table name

Metric	Table name
Technical Debt (in hours)	sc_tech_debt
Technical Debt for a New Code (in hours)	sc_new_tech_debt
Unit Test Coverage, %	sc_unit_tests_cov
Code Violations by Priorities	sc_viol_by_priority
Duplicated Lines (%)	sc_dup_lines_density
Code Maintainability Rating, grade	sc_maint_rating
Cyclomatic Complexity Per File, level	sc_file_complexity
OWASP Security Vulnerabilities (in items)	sc_owasp_vulns
Security Rating, grade	sc_sec_rating

Additionally, here are some examples with notes that can assist you in crafting PerQL.

Metric type	Chart Type	PerfQL	Notes	Applicable tables

Metric type	Chart Type	PerfQL	Notes	Applicable tables
Historical metric values per project	Line Chart	`select to_char(calculated_on, 'YYYY-MM-DD') as calculated_on, max(value) FILTER (WHERE project = 'prj1') AS prj1, max(value) FILTER (WHERE project = 'prj2') AS prj2, max(value) FILTER (WHERE project = 'prj3') AS prj3 from sc_tech_debt group by calculated_on order by calculated_on`	sc_tech_debt can be replaced with any table from Applicable tables prj1, prj2, prj3 must be replaced with projects configured in Sonar Agent data source.	sc_tech_debt sc_unit_tests_cov sc_dup_lines_density sc_maint_rating sc_file_complexity sc_owasp_vulns sc_sec_rating
Historical metric values as sum for all project	Line Chart	with days as( select distinct calculated_on as start from sc_tech_debt ), calculated_on_day as( select project, max(sc.calculated_on) as calculated_on, days.start as day from sc_tech_debt sc, days where sc.calculated_on <= days.start group by sc.project, days.start ) select to_char(day, 'YYYY-MM-DD') as calculated_day, sum(value) as value from calculated_on_day c inner join sc_tech_debt sc on sc.calculated_on = c.calculated_on group by day order by day	sc_tech_debt can be replaced with any table from Applicable tables	sc_tech_debt sc_unit_tests_cov sc_dup_lines_density sc_maint_rating sc_file_complexity sc_owasp_vulns sc_sec_rating
Actual metric values	Vertical Bar Chart	`select distinct project, first_value(value) over( partition by project order by calculated_on desc ) as actual_value from sc_tech_debt order by project`	sc_tech_debt can be replaced with any table from Applicable tables	sc_tech_debt sc_new_tech_debt sc_unit_tests_cov sc_dup_lines_density sc_maint_rating sc_file_complexity sc_owasp_vulns sc_sec_rating
Metric - Violations by priority - Actual values	Vertical Bar Chart			sc_viol_by_priority
Metric - Violations by priority - Historical values for project			prj1 must be replaced with one of projects configured in Sonar Agent data source.	sc_viol_by_priority
