Hi,

Click on the “Configuration” tab and select the “Encryption” option. This will take you to the encryption settings page.

Alternatively, you can directly access the encryption page directly on: <you_sonar_server>/admin/settings/encryption.

Once you’re on the encryption settings page, you need to generate a secret key and then proceed with the provided instructions.

@felipebz Thanks for reply.

You can find these instructions on the page where you found the initial screenshot: “Security” > “Generate the secret key” from the SonarQube docs"

I highly recommend carefully reading the documentation provided. It contains valuable information and step-by-step instructions to assist you.
