Hi,

The quality gates plugin isn’t supported here. (You might want to see if _it_ has a community.) What we offer natively is [webhooks](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/project-administration/webhooks/). Using them in the context of a Jenkins pipeline to reflect the Quality Gate status is [well documented](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/scan/sonarscanner-for-jenkins/#header-6).
