How can a public non-profit GitHub organization request OSS plan for SonarQube Cloud?

[Kushagra_Gupta]

Hello Team,

We are a non-profit organization maintaining public open-source repositories on GitHub for government/public sector initiatives.

Our repositories:

• are fully public

• are licensed under MIT License

• are connected to SonarQube Cloud

However, our organization currently appears to be on the Free plan (only main branch analysis is available, and branch analysis prompts us to upgrade to Team plan).

We contacted support regarding OSS plan access and were informed that all legacy free organizations have been moved to the OSS plan.

Since our organization is not a legacy organization, could you please clarify:

1. Is there currently a way for new public OSS organizations to get OSS plan access?

2. If yes, what is the process?

Thank you.

Hello Kushagra,

I hope you’re doing well!

Currently, there isn’t a direct way to convert an existing Free plan organization to an OSS plan. However, you can easily set up a new organization under the OSS plan by following these steps:

1. Click the “+” button in the top-right corner of the interface.

2. Select “Create new organization.”

3. Choose your DevOps platform to import your repositories (or select “Create a manual organization”)

4. In the final step, when prompted to choose a plan, select “Get SonarQube for OSS.”

Please let us know if you run into any trouble or have further questions. Best of luck with your non-profit

Hello Thamjee,

Thank you for replying.

I tried the above option , still unable to get OSS plan.

Steps I followed

1. Installed Sonar Cube at the GItHub org level
2. Gave access to all public repo within the org
3. I didnt got the 4th step of choosing a plan “Get SonarQube for OSS.”
4. On SonarCloud , its still shows 1 org with free plan.

Let me know , what am I missing.

When you create your org and land on the plan selection step, don’t select anything and scroll down (image 1).

Then down the line you’ll see a link “Get SonarQube for OSS”, click the link (image 2)

Confirm organization creation (image 3)
