ADO-Service-Connections

Create a SonarCloud Service Connection with PlatOps Github account

Get Platform Operations Github account credentials

The credentials stored in the Azure Key Vault rpe-prod. See the table below for the secrets.

Credential Secret
Username github-bot-owner-username
Password github-bot-owner-password
Recovery codes github-bot-owner-recovery-codes

The recovery codes are used as an alternative to the 2FA. Currently the Username is set as hmcts-platform-operations

Generate a user token for the Github account

  • Open a browser in incognito mode
  • Go to sonarcloud and choose Github login option
  • Sign in and then go to Security tab
  • Provide a meaningful token name and click on Generate Token. As of writing this doc there are two generated tokens Jenkins and pat-sonarcloud-platops-github. The latter one is used in this SonarCloud service connection
  • Take a note of generated token as it will be used later
  • Create a new secret in the Azure Key Vault rpe-prod with the name pat-sonarcloud-platops-github and the value as the generated token

Create a SonarCloud service connection in Azure DevOps

Go to the Azure DevOps project where you want to create the service connection. e.g. Shared Services. go to Project settings > Service connections > New service connection > SonarCloud.

New Service Connection

Paste the token generated in the previous step in the field SonarCloud Token and click on Verify and Save.

You can also update the SonarCloud Token by launching the existing SonarCloud service connection in Edit mode.
