Hi, I have a .NET project that uses EF Core and runs CI pipelines in Azure DevOps using the SonarCloud extensions. In the project there’s multiple migration files generated partially by EF Core, and I’d like to exclude those migrations from the build warning I see in our Azure DevOps pipeline. The …

Hi, Welcome to the community! On the face of it, this looks like a valid exclusion pattern. Where are you configuring that exclusion? Also, where do these files live in your project? Ann

Hi, I have a set of set of rules defined in SonarCloud and some of them I’ve disabled for one of the projects. So when SonarCloud performs the analysis, the build is green and all is good. But prior to that, when I built the solution, I get warnings that I don’t get otherwise (in the analysis). Th…

Hi, Can you provide your pipeline and your analysis log? Share the Scanner for .NET verbose logs Add /d:"sonar.verbose=true" to the… SonarScanner.MSBuild.exe or dotnet sonarscanner begin command to get more detailed logs For example: SonarScanner.MSBuild.exe begin /k:"MyProject" /d:"sonar.verbo…

Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately, I can’t share anything. It’s NDA’d. But my issue is that if I remove the SonarCloudPrepare step, then dotnet build doesn’t warn me about the files in the directory (the rest of the pipeline obviusly fails then, because the SonarCloudPrepare step doesn’t run)…

Hi, Unfortunately sonar.exclusions does not work for us. We tried to exclude migrations folder but it still reports issues related with migration files during the build step. Is there any way to fix it? [image] Best regards, Senior Software Engineer @ DOCOsoft Augustyn Binkowski

Hi Augustyn, I’ve combined your thread with this other one which is startlingly similar. Can you provide debug logging, as described above? Thx, Ann

Hello @mikkeloestrup , @ABinkowskiATDOCOsoft , This is a known issue . As of today, we can’t filter the excluded files/folders from the analysis, which happens during the build. The sonar.exclusions property is only used to filter issues sent to SonarQube/SonarCloud during the end step. As a workar…

Hi @sebastien.marichal , Thanks for the update. The editor config worked but only for one of the rules. [*.cs] dotnet_diagnostic.S6966.severity = none dotnet_diagnostic.S1144.severity = none I can’t get rid of the S1144 event with this config. The S6966 is gone and it is no longer reported as a wa…
