Create a new webhook for the SonarQube organization or project. Requires 'Administer' permission on the specified project, or global 'Administer' permission.

Get SonarQube measures for a component (project, directory, file).

Get the Quality Gate Status for the SonarQube project. Either 'analysisId', 'projectId' or 'projectKey' must be provided.

Get source code as raw text from SonarQube. Require 'See Source Code' permission on file.

Get SCM information of SonarQube source files. Require See Source Code permission on file's project

Get the health status of SonarQube Server instance. Returns GREEN (fully operational), YELLOW (usable but needs attention), or RED (not operational).
