How to get Start and end Date of applied new code period

[suganya_kuppusamy (suganya)]

Hi

Problem:

• I’am having many sonar projects in self hosted sonar server.
• I could able to get what setting applied for new code period using API (api/new_code_periods/show?project=name).
• But I want to get exact start and end date of this calculated new code metrics. Is it possible ?

Example scenario
Say new code setting is like below

{
“projectKey”: “projectxxx”,
“type”: “NUMBER_OF_DAYS”,
“value”: “180”,
“inherited”: true
}

1. some projects, started recently(less than new code period already set)
2. some are started long ago
   For case(1), I could not get the metrics for whole 180 days. In that situation, I will be better to provide new code period start date when hitting some API’s
   • Based on the date, I will decide/choose the way to proceed further.

Hey there.

GET api/components/show will return a precise start date (leakPeriodDate), and you could consider the analysisDate to be the end date.
