SonarQube
The Sonar Web API, browsable at `sonarcloud.io/web_api`, drives code-quality and security analysis results — projects, issues, quality gates, and measures — for what Sonar rebranded in 2024 from SonarCloud to SonarQube Cloud (with the self-hosted product renamed SonarQube Server). It authenticates with a personal token sent as a Bearer credential or as the username in HTTP Basic auth, not OAuth. Public and open-source projects get free unlimited analysis; private projects are free up to 50k lines of code before paid Team and Enterprise plans apply.
