Provide authentication token to SonarQube for IDE in non interactive way

Hi,

our dev ecosystem looks like:

  • Operating system: Windows 11 / Ubuntu 22.04+ / MacOS 15
  • SonarQube for IntelliJ plugin version:10.17.0.80539
  • IDE name and flavor/env: IntelliJ 2024.3.4 (Ultimate Edition)
  • Is connected mode used: SonarCloud
  • Using DevContainer

We want to use the SonarQube for IDE plugin in connected mode. And we want to make the work as comfortable as possible for our developers. Therefore, I am looking for a way to provide the authentication token in a non-interactive way so that it can be used across different development container instances or does not have to be re-entered every time the container is recreated.

I was therefore wondering if there is a way to provide the token via an environment variable or a configuration file.

I couldn’t find anything in the documentation or on the internet about how to do this.
Is there a way to do this?

Thank you very much!
