Yes, it is possible to upload source code and get analysis done through the SonarCloud API. SonarCloud provides a web API to access its functionalities from applications. The web services composing the web API are documented within SonarCloud, through the URL https://sonarcloud.io/web_api¹. You can also access the web API documentation from the top bar in Cloud by clicking the help button¹.

You can use user tokens to perform analyses or invoke web services. You can pass the token instead of your usual login. The token is sent via the login field of HTTP authentication, without any password¹.

For detailed information on user tokens and authentication, see User Accounts¹. Is there anything else you would like to know?
