We are using * 7.9.2 (build 30863)of SonarQube and I was wondering if there is a way to have a general Authentication Token rather than tokens attached to a user as users can leave or be reassigned to different roles. I checked around the standard admin tolls but don’t see anything that can accomplish this.
Any ideas for this?
Hi @RurouniKakita and welcome to the community
First, your version is past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:
7.9.2 → 7.9.6 → 8.9.3 → 9.2.1 (last step optional)
You may find the Upgrade Guide and the LTS-to-LTS Upgrade Notes helpful. If you have questions about upgrading, feel free to open a new thread for that here.
And now to your original question, where i would like you to elaborate a little. The Tokens are connected to a user to limit the permissions one will have when using said token. What would be the scope you would expect from a “general authentication token”?
We have the possibility to use a a monitoring passcode (SONAR_WEB_SYSTEMPASSCODE
) for (as the name suggests) integration with existing monitoring tools, but the way you write you are more looking into a “one token to rule them all” kind of thing?
