Hi,

Welcome to the community!

Are you saying you want to delete/ignore issues about duplications in code? If so, you can simply mark them Won’t Fix via the Issues UI. Or you can remove that rule from your profile.

If you’re instead talking about other types of issues that are raised twice, some detail on the issues themselves will be needed.

 
Thx,
Ann

Thank you for answer.
I want to do not modify it through the UI, but I can’t see that part.
Where is that UI?

Hi,

That UI is SonarQube. Go to the issue in the project’s Issues tab, and if you have the Administer Issues permission on the project, you’ll be able to mark the issue False Positive or Won’t Fix.

Even if you enter with admin privileges, if the problem type is duplicate, the wont fix UI is not displayed.

Maybe the entry method is wrong?

Hi,

Could you share a screenshot?

The duplicate problem is not in the issue type and cannot be controlled by the UI. How can I delete the duplicate without solving it?

<-Duplicate problem is not in issue type…

Hi,

Thanks for the screenshots! Now I understand!

These aren’t “issues” so you can’t mark them False Positive or Won’t Fix. The only way you can address them is to remove the duplications. Either that, or set duplication exclusions so that the files aren’t included in duplication detection.

Hi!
Thank you for your reply!

Ah,this issue is not fix for UI… I see.
If so,where can I set the duplicate exclusion so that the file is not included in the duplicate detection?

Hi,

I recommend using the UI: [Project Homepage] → Project Settings → General Settings → Analysis Scope → Duplication Exclusions.

Hi Ann,

I’m having the same problem, however I don’t have access to [Project Homepage] → Project Settings → General Settings → Analysis Scope → Duplication Exclusions.

Are you referring to the sonarcloud UI?

Thank you,

Hi @georgedias,

Welcome to the community!

This thread is filed in the SonarQube category, so I’m referring to the SonarQube interface. :slight_smile:

On SonarCloud it would be Cog / Administration → Analysis Scope → Duplication Exclusions.
