SonarQube Server / Community Build

Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

  • which versions are you using : Sonar Enterprise 2025.1
  • how is SonarQube deployed: Docker
  • what are you trying to achieve : Evaluating the AI Features
  • what have you tried so far to achieve this :
    We tried disabling the AI features by adding sonar.autodetect.ai.code to false but post startup the feature remains enabled. We needed to manually switch the flag from UI console. Can someone help if we are setting correct property or we are missing something

Hi,

Yes. That’s how it works.

Things settable via the UI aren’t settable in the server properties, and vice versa.

Hi Ann, Thanks a lot for the reply. Since in the UI it shows to switch the toggle button and below mentions that the property to be set as sonar.autodetect.ai.code thus the confusion.

Hi,

Yes, it’s unfortunate that those key are output to the UI. We have a generic manner for handling properties in the UI, and because project-level properties are overrideable as analysis parameters, property handling shows the keys you would use.
