Solution

You have 2 ways to delete a project:

OTHER TIPS

Updated for Sonar 2.11:

  • Select the project (from the home page)
  • Then click on the Project Deletion link on the bottom of the left panel
  • Finally, confirm using the Delete Project button

In Sonar 3.6, the deletion button is in the project page, under the search input, inside the menu Configuration (you must be logged as administrator):

enter image description here

Login with administrator account. Select the project name. There you can see "project deletion" under configuration menu.

Login with an administrator account, then browse to the settings page of your project to get the button "delete project".

In some situations that you want to make it programatically you can use the SonarQube's Rest Web API to do so. According to SonarQube documentation:

POST api/projects/bulk_delete

Which can be used by passing the project's ID in the "keys" parameter. I'm no pro in Curl but it should be something like this (code generated in the Postman client) for project with key "daBestProjectKey":

curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -H "Postman-Token: 10a0e9a1-8dae-a9d1-45f2-0d8e56de999d" -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW" -F "keys=daBestProjectKey" "http://localhost:9000/api/projects/bulk_delete"

[Home] button in top left corner >> [Projects] tab in top left corner >> (under name, click on the name of your project) >> [Project Deletion] (on the left panel/dashboard at the bottom) >> [Delete project] (in the center of the page, kind of).

SonarQube 5.1

  3. Select the Project(s) you want to DELETE
