Hey y’all, I’m experiencing a strange issue with SonarCloud not detecting or syncing with my GitHub repositories. Everything is configured correctly, but when I try to create a new project, my repositories aren’t showing up. Instead, it seems to be displaying some placeholder repositories like common, account-service, api-gateway, etc.
I find it very unlikely that there is a security issue here, but I really don’t like the idea of you being able to see projects you don’t recognize. So just for a moment, I’m unlisting this thread.
Hey Colin, thanks for your quick reply! Interestingly, it’s linked to a different organization, but I have a feeling I know why that’s happening. Previously, our organization on GitHub was called ‘dev-kitchen’, but we rebranded to ‘cachet-studio’.
When I link the ‘common’ repository, it points to GitHub - dev-kitchen/common, which belongs to the ‘dev-kitchen’ organization — an entity that we do not own. That explains the mismatch.
But after clicking ‘Update path’, it seems to be working again—I can now see the repositories I would expect. Some kind of bug, but glad to have it working again. Thanks for your time, and if you need anything else, feel free to let me know!
We were relying on GitHub redirects, but seems like this organization namespace was claimed by someone else
If it were private repos, they wouldn’t be listed because the app has no permission to see them
But very strange behaviour nonetheless
