The SonarQube project not accessible error

When trying to set the SonarQube plugin, you might get the following error:

The SonarQube Project 'SomeProject' is not accessible. 


Most likely it's a permission issue. The solution for this would be to use:

  • Project Key as Project Name
  • User Token instead of Global Token

An additional tip to verify access to the project is to run the following command in the terminal:

curl -u $SONARCLOUD_TOKEN:  'https://[HOST]/api/components/show?component=[KEY]'
