**ERROR: Insufficient privileges** With that amount of explication, this is the only help we can give you. You checked if you’re passing the `sonar.login` property correctly? Are you using `sonar-scanner`, `SonarScanner.MSBuild` or what? ---

Hi, ‘Insufficient privileges’ Check the global permissions [https://yoursonarhost/admin/permissions](https://yoursonarhost/admin/permissions), the user needs ‘Execute Analysis’ and ‘Create Projects’ (if initial scan) permission. Our Jenkins user is in the admin group and has all permissions. Regards, Gilbert ---

Hi @janos, this will - hopefully soon - be fixed with [https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-11155](https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-11155) !? One of the most annoying gotchas since the introduction of the branching feature ☹ Gilbert ---
