How to delete an issue from SonarQube interface

I have a web app project where the quality is measured under sonarqube.

As i'm dealing with an external code within my project files

Recently i have had some issues appearing due to that exetrnal code and which i'm not focusing on its quality :

So i wanna just delete the issue to appear from my sonar dashboard (which looks like the following):

enter image description here

The solutions that i have had where not really usefull , as :

  1. i was suggested to change the level of the rule itself from "issue" to "info" : enter image description here

And of course that seems to be not usefful because , i won't affect the rule itself

  1. the second suggestion was to use the :

    @SuppressWarnings decorator in my blocks of code where the issues appeared ; : for example use it under classes or methods or even fields

-> this method results in adding some code to my extarnal code and that won't be also good as i'm not even having the permission to do it.

I wanna just the simpliest solution to delete the issue from the sonar dashboard , just suppress it from the SonarQube interface , strangely it seems that there is no a direct way to do it :

Any better ideas ??

If you're not interested some issues because it's not your code, then you should not have SonarQube analyze that code. According to the SonarQube documention:

We recommend that you exclude generated code, source code from libraries, etc.

You should check in particular the following settings in the same documentation page:

  • sonar.sources
  • sonar.exclusions

These settings will be taken into account the next time you run an analysis.

The easiest way is excluding external code from the report with narrowing the focus feature.

Just add to your sonar-project.properties file path pattern to exclusion, for example

# Exclude all classes ending by "Bean"
# Matches org/sonar.api/MyBean.java, org/sonar/util/MyOtherBean.java, org/sonar/util/MyDTO.java, etc.
sonar.exclusions=**/*Bean.java,**/*DTO.java

# Exclude all classes in the "src/main/java/org/sonar" directory
# Matches src/main/java/org/sonar/MyClass.java, src/main/java/org/sonar/MyOtherClass.java
# But does not match src/main/java/org/sonar/util/MyClassUtil.java
sonar.exclusions=src/main/java/org/sonar/*
