SonarQube for IDE: IntelliJ v11.14 delivers automation of the re-authentication process, plus many new Quick Fixes for JS/TS.

Automated authentication - one-click token refresh: To minimize workflow interruptions caused by expired security tokens, we have automated the re-authentication process between your IDE and SonarQube Server or SonarQube Cloud.

• Proactive detection: The IDE now automatically identifies when a connection token has become invalid or has reached its expiration.
• Integrated workflow: A new prompt allows developers to regenerate and apply a fresh token directly within the IntelliJ interface.
• Frictionless connectivity: Removes the need to manually navigate settings menus or external web interfaces to restore server synchronization.

80+ New JS/TS Quick Fixes: The update significantly scales the automated "Quick Fix" library for JavaScript and TypeScript, providing instant solutions for high-frequency code issues.

• Instant issue resolution: Developers can now access over 80 additional rQuick Fixes related to code smells, bugs, and styling inconsistencies with a single click.
• Modernization patterns: The engine provides automated paths to convert legacy code patterns into modern ES6+ equivalents.
• Technical debt reduction: These fixes target specific issues - such as variable shadowing, redundant logic, and unused imports - to maintain codebase health.

SonarQube for IDE: IntelliJ v11.3 focuses on security and performance enhancements.

Security enhancements

• Dependency risk detection - in conjunction with SonarQube Cloud, you can now identify and track security risks and vulnerabilities found in your project’s third-party dependencies. This contributes to a holistic security posture, including the libraries you rely on.

Performance enhancements

• We've implemented several improvements designed to increase analysis speed which we know is critical to your workflow.  These include parallel execution for Python, and Git optimizations.
• We have also introduced a new “Flight recorder” mode to help you detect and report issues. Simply activate the mode and share the generated session ID with our support team to get diagnostics to us fast, and rapid resolution to any challenges you encounter.

Plus

• Go 1.25 support: We are now fully compatible with Go 1.25.
• New PyTorch rules: Write more secure and reliable AI/ML models with 4 new PyTorch rules.
• New MISRA C++ rules: We've added 5 new MISRA C++ rules to help you achieve compliance in safety-critical industries.

*Action required

We have dropped support for Node.js 18. The new minimum requirement is Node.js 20.12. Please update your environments to ensure continued compatibility.

SonarQube for IDE: IntelliJ v11.0 - focus on what matters with a fresh, filterable UI.

Introducing a redesigned main tool window:

More intuitive and powerful, and with new filters, you can now instantly narrow down issues by severity or type, helping you to focus on what's most important and fix code quality and security issues faster. All findings are now also centralized in one single place.

A more flexible pre-commit workflow:

We've refactored the pre-commit analysis feature to give you more control. You can now choose to proceed with your commit even if issues are still present, ensuring that the code quality gate doesn't hinder your productivity.

Take control of your dependencies directly within your IDE.
SonarQube for IDE: IntelliJ v10.29 introduces robust dependency risk management.


In connected mode, simply access the new Dependency Risks view from the SonarQube report view. This powerful view clearly displays dependency risks and license violations identified in your SonarQube Server project analysis. For insights into analyzing your projects for dependencies, refer to the SonarQube documentation.


Act on issues instantly:
Don't just see the problems—solve them! Interact directly with these issues by opening them in SonarQube Server or changing their status right from your IDE.


Streamline your setup:
We’ve enhanced binding detection between your local projects and SonarQube Server or Cloud analyzed projects using Git information. This improvement simplifies the connected mode setup after your initial SonarQube for IDE connection.


Plus, for C++ developers analyzing code in CLion using MISRA C++:2023 rules: these early access rules are now available in the IDE, enabling local analysis.
